Glen Coe, located in the Scottish Highlands, is a stunning glen known for its dramatic beauty and rich history. Home to Scottish mountaineering, it's a popular spot for hillwalkers and climbers. The U-shaped glen was formed by an ice age glacier and features peaks like Buachaille Etive Beag and the Three Sisters. The area is also famous for the tragic Massacre of Glencoe in 1692. With its breathtaking landscapes and historical significance, Glen Coe is a must-visit destination for nature lovers and history buffs alike.
