What to do and see in Glencoe, Scotland: The Best Things to do Adventurous

A favorite for climbers and hikers, this is one of Scotland's most graceful and most photographed mountains.

The National Trust for Scotland cares for Glencoe National Nature Reserve, a 14,000 acre estate with 60 kilometres of footpaths for you to explore, marvel at the panoramic mountain views and spot internationally-renowned wildlife. Glencoe is a natural wonder, the remnants of a 'caldera' or super-volcano, formed many millions of years ago and later shaped by glaciers during numerous Ice Ages. Its history is a poignant one, most famed for the 'Massacre' of 1692 and more recently as a playground for pioneering mountaineers and climbers. Find out more or support the conservation work of Glencoe's Ranger team at the NTS Glencoe Visitor Centre at the western end of the Glen.

All of our leisure business is now offered through Action Glen, please search 'Action Glen At Isles of Glencoe' for more details.
