So much myth, legend and history precedes a visit to the expanse of Glencoe and Loch Leven, that visitors are unprepared for the sheer beauty and breathtaking serenity of this vast sweeping pass.
With each of the four seasons, new waves of colour wash across the sharply steepening foothills up to the massive angular peaks that push into an ever changing sky.

| Glencoe is without doubt one of Europe's scenic highlights. But the famous pass is only the beginning. From the scene of the Appin Murder which inspired Robert Louis Stevenson to write 'Kidnapped' to the high road to Kinlochleven, from the enchantment of Eilean Munde, the burial isle to the village of Glencoe, Ballachulish and Onich, it's easy to see why seasoned visitors would keep this wonderful place a secret if they could. |

| The area is alive with wild flowers from May onwards and Glencoe is an important conservation area for Alpine species. The ancient woodlands also provide a display of woodland flowers like bluebells with the trees themselves putting on a wonderful show of colour in the autumn.
Wildlife is abundant with deer, pine-marten, otters and wildcat all growing local populations seen year-round. Golden Eagles and other raptors may be seen, while Loch Leven is a breeding territory for many seabirds and ducks. |
