Bun Natrach Island, Loch Etive

Highlight • Natural

Here I spent a night on the West Highland Way. In the evening there was a mix of sun, clouds and rain and the panoramic view into the Loch was spectacular. Only the midges were really annoying.

The River Leven in Kinlochleven

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautifully situated on the eastern end of Loch Leven, the town of Kinlochleven has lots to offer lovers of the outdoors. There are plenty of amenities and accommodation options here, as well as the world's biggest indoor ice climbing wall.

Kinlochleven is a great base for the wonderful Mamores, which rise steeply to the north and are accessed by easy to follow stalkers' paths. The town also hosts the annual Skyline Scotland Trail Race series, including the classic Ring of Steall skyrace.
