Whether you want to treat yourself after a few active days in the Scottish Highlands, or need a soothing indoor activity on a rainy day, a day between pool and sauna will do you good.There are a few hotels in and near Glencoe which have sauna facilities – Hi Kathy.

They offer lovely rooms and chalets (see section on where to stay above) and have a great restaurant. From Glasgow, Glencoe is a popular hiking destination, but you don’t have to be an experienced mountaineer to hit the trails in Glencoe! I’m a little guilty at just driving through Glen Coe because the drive is so pretty.
From the top of the corrie you can climb the two summits of the Buachaille, which are both classified as Munros, Stob Dearg and Stob na Bròige.The stunning mountain ridge of Aonach Eagach has been on my bucket list for a while now and is the perfect day out for experienced hikers in Glencoe. The views of the waterfall, towards Loch Leven and the surrounding mountains, are stunning. Some of these are exclusive to visiting Scotland in winter, others can be enjoyed year round. !Awesome guide!

Warming the cockles with a good whisky afterwards is my idea of a great way to unwind.Definitely a bit of everything in this part of the world!I have climbed Ben Nevis but as part of the 3 peaks challenge so I did not get a chance to explore the local area! You have to balance your way across the single wire while holding onto the two upper wire rails to make it across. Does it rely on tons of upper body strength?My sister is the ice climbing expert but yes it does help to have some decent upper body strength, but leg strength too to help balance it out and not rely on the arms too much. And the way they turned on their hosts has made it one of the most shocking events in Scottish history.The Visitors Centre tells the story of the massacre as well as the mountaineering history of the area (the photos of early climbers and skiers in their original kit are quite an eye-opener!). But whatever the time of year, it’s worth taking the cable car up onto the top of the mountain to catch the views from Eagles Rest and the summit of Creag Dhubb.If the Scottish weather is too wet and wild to get outdoors, how about getting your adrenaline rush by ice climbing inside a giant fridge instead? You don’t require any climbing experience, but you have to be physically fit, prepared to get wet and comfortable with heights to do this. It might not look it at first glance but it’s one of the best-preserved castles of its age in Scotland, and has a few bloody tales to tell. 20 fun things to do in Glencoe | Outdoor & Indoor Activities Can we connect over email?Hi there, absolutely! The hike includes a lot of exposed scrambling along the ridge and two Munros, Meall Dearg and Sgorr nam Fiannaidh. In the weekends, the real action goes down in the The Glencoe Folk Museum provides an insight into the history and the lives of the people if Glencoe throughout the centuries.

Neptune’s Staircase was fascinating, I’d like to do a boat trip going down (or up) it next time but it was interesting to even just watch in action. Later it was reoccupied and two fierce battles took place here.The first was in 1431 when 1000 men were killed and the second in 1645 when another 1500 died on the battlefield. There’s another easy option at Glencoe Lochan, a small loch behind Glencoe Village with a few different walking routes, including one around the lake and others through the forest and into the hills.A bit more strenuous is the walk to the Pap of Glencoe, a conical mountain overlooking Glencoe Village. The trail up the Pap is very simple to follow, even though it gets quite steep at times. While there are ample mountain biking paths in the area, there is also the option for a relaxed cycle from Glencoe all the way to Oban. There are one-hour taster sessions where you can get to grips with the kit and techniques (ice axes and boots are provided but bring gloves and warm clothes). Pop into the Glencoe Visitor Centre and grab a bite to eat before you go for a wander in the glen.

The paths up the two peaks are good, however, this is not a trail to follow if you don’t know how to navigate with map and compass.The West Highland Way is Scotland’s most popular long-distance trail and leads past the entrance of Glencoe near Buachaille Etive Mor.

If you have started to read up on must-see places in Scotland, you have with certainty come across Glencoe. Ballachulish is the next village over from Glencoe, and you can reach it either by car or bus towards Fort William. I’d dearly love to photograph that stunning scenery too. Not forgetting a wee dram by the fire at the end of the day it all sounds AND looks fabulous! The path is easily recognisable but requires some mild scrambling.
