buggy friendly walks

Hello
Wonder if anyone can help. I am coming up to Glencoe next May with my family and my young Grandson will still be in his buggy. Can anyone suggest any nice walks that would be buggy friendly.
I would really appreciate your help.

  • Re:- buggy friendly walks
    Hi Lyn,
    There are various buggy-friendly walks around Glencoe. We have several trails here at the Visitor Centre, all of which will be fine with a buggy. The Forestry Commission Lochan trails near Glencoe village are also accessible for buggies. A few other paths may also be accessible depending on the robustness of the buggy.

    If you need any more information feel free to come into the Visitor Centre when you are up here and talk to the member of staff working on the ranger desk.

We are planning a coach trip round Scotland with a goup of Ukrainian tourists. Therefore, we are genuinely interested, if THe Glencoe Visitor Center is accessible by coach (road width, parking facilities). Thank You in advance.

Are there any very gentle walks for a very pregnant lady ?

I'm visiting Glencoe with a group of friends in two weeks, will be just over 7 months pregnant and would love to know if there are any easy walks of around 1-2 miles ? It will be our last trip before the baby arrives and I'd love to get out in the scenery -even if only for a few hours a day.

  • Re:- Are there any very gentle walks for a very pregnant lady ?
    Hi Lilly,
    There are several low level walks in the area. We have a short 1 mile walk from the Glencoe Visitor Centre, a 2 mile walk in the An Torr woodland to Signal Rock and the Forestry commission Lochan Trails behind Glencoe Village are also good, well marked low level trails. In addition the old road through the centre of Glencoe is a good track that leads right underneath the three sisters of Glencoe. Pop into the visitor centre at the start of your visit and one of our rangers will be happy to give you more details on suitable low level walks in the area!

New Glencoe Battlefield

What on earth have you done to the blue walk through the woodland behind the Visitor Centre and caravan park? It used to be such a lovely walk and now it looks like a battlefield. I do hope that someone is going to tidy up the scrub left by the tree harvesting operation and perhaps re-plant with some natural woodland native to the area.

    Dear William,
    The NTS bought this site from the Forestry Commission in the 1990s to build the Visitor Centre. As well as the camp site we also got small areas of non native conifers and this is the area that we have built the blue route on down to the ruin at Inverrigan. We recently clear felled an area of those conifers in tandem with the forestry commission who were cutting an adjacent area. You are correct the site does look devastated just now, but please rest assured that over the summer, various volunteer groups have been lined up (the first has already spent a day on the site) to clear and tidy the brash and large ruts left by the harvesters. We are also currently collecting seeds from native trees growing around the glen and once a suitable fallow period has been left (to get rid of pine weevils and other nasties that would devastate young saplings) they'll be planted in the area.
    I hope that sets your mind at ease.
    Many thanks
    Scott

      Hi Colorado,
      The original plan was to repair the bridge but further investigation into the bridge's structure revealed more rot than first anticipated. We are awaiting on plans for a new bridge and therefore the bridge will remain shut until further notice. We are sorry for any incovenience this may be causing but this is the safest option.

      Just beautiful!

      I visited Glencoe 25 years back during my student times and immediately fell in love it. It is a place that is both disturbing and also a balm for the soul. This September I came back with 2 colleagues from work and we took a very interesting and also entertaining landrover safari tour. This was a good opportunitiy to see and learn more about the area. Thanks for offering this! After being back at work and having to look most of day into the screen of my laptop I wish I could “beam myself up there”… since unfortunately this is not possible looking at the pictures I have taken must do ;-)

        In awe

        When travelling through Glencoe it always, always makes me feel exceedingly small and cowed. I suppose both the historical significance and the wonderful sights each play a part in that peculiar feeling. The Visitor Centre there is a magnificent addition beautifully blended into the existing landscape.

            In love.......

            Scotland has become my second home. The nature is overwhelming and the people are very kind to me. The minute I am back in Holland I become homesick. Glencoe is one of many places I am in love with. So it would not be a surprise to you that the “new” (for I have known also the old one) visitor centre has stolen my heart. In august I will be on my way to Inverness from New Castle. The first thing I could think of is “Is there time to drink a cup of tea at the visitors centre? Just to enjoy the view and the friendliness. I hope that I will continue visiting your centre for the next couple of years.

              Kindness of betty keyes

              We visited this beautiful part of the world when my wife was pregnant with triplets five years ago. We were overwhelmed by the friendliness of betty when we explained that three little ones were on their way. Life changed for us forever three months on when dana had evie, kiara and matthew. We were so taken by betty and glencoe that when we stayed in Perthshire we travelled up to show her the little guys- they were ten months then. It is a fair drive from Durham up there but was well worth it. Betty made such a fuss of them and gave them bears which have the capacity for recorded messages. I did a message and tonight they asked about it all at bed time. I am sitting here watching them drifting to sleep as I type on my iPod and hope to return to the wonders of glencoe and betty one day. It would be lovely to hear from het too

                    Beautiful Glencoe

                    Glencoe is the most beautiful place on earth. In March 1992 our brother Stuart lost his life on Bein Mor Challum. It was a very distressing time for us as he was missing for almost 12/13 weeks.Every year, as near to his anniversary as possible (weather permitting) I drive up to Glencoe and place flowers on the hill just in front of the car park and helipad. It's a great comfort and although very sad, it is very peaceful as we know how much he loved these hills. Over the years I have kept in touch with the people who helped us get through this awful time. The family can't thank the Glencoe Mountain Rescue Team, RAF Leuchers, Lossiemouth and Gannet, Heavy Walley, Ken and his late wife Helen Lindsay and Maureen of Clachaigh Inn for their support. These people are the salt of the earth and we will never forget what they did for our family. Our brothers ashes have been scattered high up in the hills by Ken, just another lovely gesture - we know this is where Stuart would have wanted his last resting place to be. This is a lovely site, keep up the good work.

                        Annual visit

                        We first visited the centre about 6 years ago and were enthralled by the place. Each year on our way up to Skye, this is a must stop place for us. Firstly we make our way to the viewpoint at the back of the centre and spend a while just taking in the magnificent view. We dont speak - that would spoil it, just sitting a while and enjoying the looks on the faces of first time visitors. Then we stop in the cafe for refreshments - always nice, friendly staff. Finally we pop into the shop for our postcards and a few souveniers. Its now become our annual pilgrimage. What a magnificent place...well doen to all involved

                            Video on Glencoe Massacre

                            I visited Glencoe 2 years ago and whilst there came to the visitors centre. There was an exhibit (I would assume a permanent one but I really don't know. I live in Australia so there's absolutely no chance of me having a quick visit to check, unfortunately!) there about the Glencoe Massacre and showing was a video about it. I'm doing a speech on the massacre in my history class and I'd be interested in finding out the name of the documentary so I can credit it as a resource. (I'd also like to credit the exhibit in general but I have no clue as to how I'd go about doing that).
                            Well, anyway, any assistance is appreciated. I've had a brief look around for this video's name but I assume there's a few documentaries on the events so I wouldn't know which one to add in my bibliography.
                            Thanks in advance!

                              Hi Fiona,
                              I'm afraid the video in our exhibition isn't commercially available. We had it specially made for us. It was produced by an Interpretation Company called "StudioArc" in Edinburgh, and it was Written by Dr Fiona Watson. She was the main speaker on the video, and is Professor of History at Stirling University.
                              I hope this is enough for you to use as credits, but if not please get back to me, since she has written a book on the history of Scotland and you may be able to find that and use that as a creditable source instead.
                              Good Luck

The young guy smoking left of centre bears a close resemblance to Les Stevenson but the names printed below the picture are not the same.Could anyone please tell me if this is or isn't LES?

                                    There are many low level walks in the area that are suitable for walking with young children. There are trails around the Visitor Centre, some in the An Torr woodland (about 2miles from the visitor centre), some in Glencoe Village (Forestry comission - Lochan Trails) and others in the area. I would advise popping into the visitor centre at the start of your trip and talking to one of our rangers on the information desk(in the main reception area of the visitor centre). They'll be able to give you some ideas of places to go and what is suitable with a young child. I hope you enjoy your trip to Glencoe.

We've had a fantastic time and look forward to going to the An Torr Woodland on our next visit.

Sorry you couldn't make the BTO bird day on Saturday. It was very good, but also very wet. I think the BTO are running the same course later in the year in the Inverness area. See there website for more details: www.bto.org.uk

                                  My wife and I will be celebrating our 50th Anniversary in Scotland this coming May. We love the country and have been there 8 times. Have never been to this area but certainly look forward to seeing the beauty tht Scotland has to offer in and around Glencoe. If there is any special place to visit I would appreciate knowing. We will be passing through and only spending a few hours as we head towards the most Northern Highlands.

                                    Well Glencoe is certainly a special place! There is some fantastic mountain scenery to be seen in and around Glencoe, and some lovely walks that could easily fill a few hours. If you come to the Glencoe Visitor Centre and visit the Ranger Desk they will help you find a walk to suit your needs and help you with any other information you wish to know about the local area.

                                        We Love Betty

                                        We first visited Glencoe in July 2006, unfortunately my daughter Shannon suffers from serious seizures and whilst we were there, she took a really bad one. We were seriously concerned and rang our local hospital back in Liverpool, but they advised us to nurse her through it. We called in to the visitors centre, but Shanny was really out of things, that's when we met Betty.
                                        Betty was so caring and helpful, she actually got shanny to snap out of the seizure and for that we will be eternally grateful. Betty was an absolute credit to Scotland, so last Summer we decided to return to Glencoe on our way to Skye. Shannon wanted to call in and thank Betty in person, so she did. Betty was brilliant, she remembered Shannon and bought her a Highland Cow cuddly from the shop. She even promised to name a new calf after Shannon. Betty kept her promise and this week sent Shannon a picture of her new born calf.
                                        I want to thank Betty and just let everyone know about this caring and wonderful lady. Thank You Betty, you will always be in our hearts, not only that, but we will be returning to Glencoe later this year, all due to Betty. I think that when people get awards, people like Betty should be top of the list, she is number one on our list every time.

                                          I wanted to spend a day in Glencoe,
                                          on our way home from Inverness we planned to stop for lunch and a easy
                                          short walking trail, see the Visitor Center and enjoy the views. We got in
                                          an accident before Ft. William and were
                                          delayed and did not get to Glencoe until around 6:00PM. I was knocked out
                                          with the views, but could not find my
                                          camera, so I had to borrow friends who
                                          were with me, so I did not take many pics, but I just stood there and took in the views, we stopped many places
                                          on A82 along Loch Leven, what a beautiful area, I someday hope to come back and spend more time in the Glencoe area, do some trails, take lots of pics, meanwhile I have the many sites like yours to look at everyday. Thank you, untill.......

                                            Caledonian forest seedlings are they available to buy

                                            I visited Glencoe a few years ago and was interested in the way you were growing from seeds collected from the ancient forest and you mentioned that maybe some saplings might be available to buy. How far along are you in this venture? Are any saplings ready? I for one would love to plant something in my garden from the ancient forests of Scotland bringing them into Edinburgh.

I would just like to say thankyou for a wonderful and unforgettable experience. It was a privilage to see often un seen places in the area and to learn so much about the flora and forna and geology. It was a delight and I thank you so much for a special experience and day. Thank you to Scott for his wealth of knowledge and taking care of us all throughout the trip.

                                                  on the 28th of january 2006 I was on stob dearg in glen coe, the sun came out behind me at the glen etive side and cast a shadow onto the mist at the kingshouse side. I appeared to have a rainbow circle round my shadow. I have read about this before but cant remember the proper title for it. It was "Magical". The views when the mist lifted was excellent, I did.nt want to come down.

                                                  Buchaille Etive Mor is breath taking. My Father, "Wee Sammy Smith" climbed this mountain time after time as a young man. Sam passed away in February 15, 1992. His ashes are now on the top of this mountain. I visited the site a few years back and I have to say, Glenco and the Buchaille Etive Mor are absolutely, "Heaven". I am happy that this was is final resting place.

                                                    Recently here at Glencoe we received an enquiry from Richard in Holland. We were asked about Beithar the dragon who once lived in the area. Now, our information about Beither is a little slight just at the minute; does anyone have any further information about the beast?

The NTS is currently working to develop and implement a Gaelic policy and something we aspire to doing is translating this site in the future. But in the meantime if there’s anyone out there who’d like to help out with a translation, then please get in touch.
