Top places to visit in GLENCOE 🏴👇🏽
Most people come to Glencoe either on a day trip or just stop here briefly on their way to Isle of Skye…
I am guilty of this my first time in the Highlands, and I am SO happy that we decided to spend a couple of full days here on our last trip!
Giving yourself more time allows you to take in the magic of Glencoe in different ways:
🥾 Hiking around its majestic peaks
⛰️ Enjoying slow coffee/food breaks with views
🚗 Driving down the scenic side roads everyone skips
🏩 Sleeping in historic mansions
🪦 Wandering through historic, lakefront cemeteries
Also the more time you have, the more types of weather you’ll see (you’re in Scotland, after all 😅)
Here are my top sights in Glencoe:
✨Three Sisters - Glencoe’s famous three peaks
✨Meeting of the Three Waters - where three different rivers collide
✨Ralston Cairn - a memorial overlooking the best view in Glencoe
✨Lagangarbh Hut - the most photographed house in Scotland
✨Glen Etive Road - 12-mile scenic road known for being in Skyfall
✨Kings House Hotel - potential to see red deer on their grounds!
✨Loch Achtriochtan - beautiful lake underneath the glen’s peaks
✨Saint John’s Churchyard - stunning old cemetery on Loch Leven
