📌 Glencoe, Highland
★★
By far the best way to explore the wonderful world of Glen Coe is on foot, or failing that, by road along the base of the glen. But if weather, time, health or other reasons prevent this, you can get a taste for this iconic spot at the National Trust for Scotland’s recently revamped visitor centre close to the lower, western end of the glen. Exhibitions give an excellent overview of this area’s pivotal role in rock climbing, the Glencoe Massacre, how the landscape was formed and its vibrant flora and fauna. The centre is free to visit but there’s a parking charge; this goes towards the Trust’s work preserving the famous landscape and maintaining footpaths.
