The towering mountains of Glencoe are a sight to behold. But behind the beauty lies tragedy. The Massacre of Glencoe in 1692 is forever remembered as one of the most despicable acts of betrayal in Scottish history. The beauty and the history combine to make the atmosphere of this place something special.
