Glen Etive
Gleann Eite
A seemingly endless single-track glen running east from Glencoe, the valley where James Bond drives and gazes over M in Skyfall. Wild red deer often wander along the roadside.
The single-track road through Gleann Eite runs about 19 km, leaving the A82 and following the River Etive down to the head of Loch Etive. Along the way are waterfalls, deep pools and spectacular valley scenery, with almost no sign of people. The scene in Skyfall where Bond and M look out over the landscape was filmed here. The road is narrow, so use passing places to let oncoming vehicles through. A round trip takes about 1.5–2 hours. There is no entry fee, and there are no shops or fuel stations along the way.
