Glen Coe

Description

Legendary valley in Scotland. Here, in 1692, the Massacre of Glencoe took place. History is adding to the popularity of Glen Coe. The other is the spectacular views from the valley grounds onto the mountains, U-shaped in the last ice age. The place is frequented by tourists. It's a very good spot for rock climbing too. Hikers on the West Highland Way can take a short side trip to visit Glen Coe.
