Wow. So beautiful. I don't think I'll ever get to Scotland ... but a large part of my heart lies there, courtesy of my forebears. We don't even get any snow where I live! Apart from the huge mountains, I love the escarpments - those slopes - 18:45 - truly breathtaking. I even love the bridges, sturdy stone structures. Thanks so much ♥♥♥
My favourite bit of Glencoe is a wee patch of grass at the foot of Buchaille Etive Mor - just opposite the wee climber's hut, by which there are (were?) stepping stones over the River Coupall. This was the site of my first-ever camping expedition in 1974, to which we travelled in my uncle's Jaguar - that got parked in an infomal parking area next to the road. It was also my first visit to that part of the Highlands, and to Oban, etc. I wish they'd demolish the grafitti-covered cottage formely owned by you-know-who. It is an eyesore - and even in this negative way, he doesn't deserve to be remembered. Also, the Three Sisters Stretch, which is so dramatic! Of course, you enhance everywhere you go, Liam - thanks again for sharing so expertly!
Travelled through there from Tyndrum, Rannoch Moor must be one of the most barren but beautiful spots I have ever travelled through. Love the A86 and the town of Kingussie. Nearby Ruthven barracks is one of my favorite spots on this earth, just nice memories of that location...
My favourite place on the planet! Used to drive through Glencoe once a week in my lorry, it never looks the same with the ever changing light. Just watch for the deep potholes in the laybys which are often full of water.
Incredible filming as always mate,thanks for sharing...can't wait to get up there next year,absolutely love all of this area,especially Glencoe,it's easy to see why so many people are drawn to this area. Hoping to go out of season so it's not quite so rammed. Merry Christmas and all the best to you for 2025.. a year I know is going to change my life forever👍👍
Glencoe is very beautiful (I have only ever driven through it!) but being only a few hours from Glasgow it can get really busy. There’s some really beautiful hidden gems if you get off the beaten track. Great video though the snow capped mountains always get me in the feels!
I’d have to agree with that! It’s the reason Iv never been to Glencoe it’s just to accessible and pretty much always busy. So many less known places to go before I attempt to go there!!
As you found this weather is hazardous. Cold air from the mountains drops into the bottom causing frost pockets and freezing fog. It can also get very wet and windy. Once came up the Glen in wet, windy weather on a motorcycle at about 50mph and the rain was passing me in big wet globs. Lucky it stopped by the time I got to the Green Welly. Where the 'new' road runs over the river and by the pipers falls the original course of the road is to the west and above coming down from the right and away to the left 1/2 mile either side of the climbers (Hamish Macinnes) cottage.
I could have watched you driving along there for hours.... video was over just as getting in to it. When get bored i do Dundee to Inverness as at just over 2hrs, just along the road really.

Thanks again Barbara ❄️😃
If that tanker slipped on the bend going that speed you were a goner. My heart skipped a beat.

It certainly is, I love it. 😍

Great scenic footage.
Glad you enjoyed it!

It can get very busy indeed. I love going off the ‘beaten track’ regularly, but there is just something special about Glencoe for me ❤️
Two hours from Glasgow isn't really that remote...
It's why so many tourists visit it each year.
I’d have to agree with that! It’s the reason Iv never been to Glencoe it’s just to accessible and pretty much always busy. So many less known places to go before I attempt to go there!!
Your right it’s too easily accessible, a nightmare in the summer , car parks overflowing in to the roads etc
Depends on your idea of remote I suppose. The NC500 is more popular, and has some of the most remote spots in the country.

It’s very exposed to the elements Brian. Makes it even more so dramatic, especially in some wintry conditions 🥶 ❄️
