Other walks in the area
Coire Gabhail Lost Valley, Pass of Glencoe
A great walk along All Coire Gabhail riverside with its waterfalls to reach the Coire Gabhail Lost Valley surrounded by The Three Sisters in Glencoe National Nature Reserve.
The Three Sisters and the Lost Valley
A superb hike with a magnificent view over the whole region! Please note: there are some very technical sections bordering on rock climbing. Good walking boots are essential as there are stony sections. Only attempt this in good weather.
From Kingshouse Hotel to Kinlochleven
The sixth stage of the WHW takes us past the highest point of the entire walk, an unnamed pass at an altitude of 550 metres. After a pleasant walk at the foot of Beinn a’ Chrùlaiste, we reach the pass by climbing theDevil’s Staircase, which is easier than the name of this path might suggest. We then descend along good paths or wide tracks towards the former small industrial town of Kinochlevel.
From Kinlochleven to Fort William
The seventh and final stage of the WHW takes us through stunning scenery at the foot of the Mamore range. We then pass through fairly open woodland, offering superb views of Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest peak. Our arrival in the town of Fort William marks the end of this multi-stage walk.
The West Highland Way - Stage Five (Kinlochleven to Fort William)
The West Highland Way is the most established of Scotland’s long-distance walking routes. This is the fifth of a five stage route, staying at prebooked accomodation along the way. A simple route, with some climbing but mostly sticking to streams and rivers to walk through the valleys whilst appreciating the high mountains from below.
Grey Mares Tail Waterfall, Kinlochmore
A gentle walk through the woods to discover Grey Mares Tail Waterfall.
Glencoe Lochan Trails
A pleasant walk along marked trails through an ornamental forest at the foot of Glen Coe. The picturesque and serene lochan, with its wooded banks, contrasts with the wild and spectacular mountains of the valley through which it flows.
Steall Gorge Waterfall
Located south of Ben Nevis and following the river of the same name (Water of Nevis), this hike to Steall Gorge waterfall is either an alternative to the Mount or a majestic and easy-to-access side walk.
Perfectly signposted, the first part is accessible to all and offers a 150 m view of the entire waterfall.
Crossing a suspension bridge, you can reach the foot of the waterfall, where a prominent rock offers a remarkable podium for hikers.
