Surrounded by some of the most dramatic and beautiful scenery in Scotland, Ballachulish is a perfect base for exploring the amazing landscape of Glencoe. The village used to be the ‘slate capital’ of Scotland and the disused quarries can be still seen nearby. The village is split into two – North Ballachulish and South Ballachulish – and is situated on either side of Loch Leven, where it flows into Loch Linnhe.
