Glencoul is a beautifully located wilderness shelter on the Cape Wrath Trail. It’s a good start point for visiting Eas a' Chual Aluinn, the UK's highest waterfall, as well as the Corbetts of Glas Bheinn and Beinn Leòid. Its surroundings are spectacular, with the Stack of Glencoul close at hand and the fascinating shape of Quinag to the west.
