Beautiful scenery, and we were lucky enough to see it on a very calm day, so the mirror images in the water were terrific. An easy flat walk round the lochan with loads of photo opportunities.

If you have a chance to visit Scotland, you should find time to drive up north to the high land in Glen Coe. Along the road side A82 before you get into the town of Glen Coe, you will find a land mark of the town ‘The Three Sisters’. You can park your car at the parking lot on the road side. The trail is just starting from there. You will find a small trail leading from the parking lot down to the mountain in front of you. Just walk to the left trail and follow the route. The trail is not too difficult but you need to prepare yourself such as a good hiking shoes , walking stick , drinking water , a jacket etc. it should take you around two to two and a half hour to get to the summit, but you don’t have to worry because you will enjoy the water fall view along the hiking trail. At the top, you will see the famous Lost Valley right in front of you. I love this trail because other than hiking, I also get a very good photo of the mountain and water fall.

The Devil's Staircase on Thhe West Highland Way looks very formidable on the trail maps. In reality, I didn't find it either that steep, or as twisty as represented on the maps. It was a nice hike up and over; and the views along the way, and especially from the summit, were very nice. This section of the WHW was very crowded, mostly with dayhikers and locals; but not unbearably so. I did pass many people on the ascent - which is normally not my standard - but I was intent on avoiding a potential rain storm if possible. The summit is rather obvious but there is no permanent marking of the summit.
