Glencoe
The road through Glencoe is one of the most scenic in Scotland (best appreciated on a clear day!). Huge mountains tower above on both sides, the Glen’s river plunges down waterfalls and rapids, and the occasional wizened tree tells of the fearsome winter weather. And more, the Glen has a foreboding history of betrayal and massacre. Glencoe is a popular coach excursion from Fort William.
