Glencoe Mountain Resort
Glencoe Mountain
Scotland's oldest ski area, where a chairlift takes you up for views over Rannoch Moor and the Buachaille Etive Mòr. It is also open for sightseeing in summer.
Glencoe Mountain Resort lies at the eastern entrance to Glencoe. It opened in 1956 and was Scotland's first commercial ski area. The Access chairlift runs year-round, carrying visitors to a platform at about 650 m with views over Rannoch Moor and the Buachaille Etive Mòr. In summer, there is also a downhill mountain bike trail. At the foot of the mountain are a café and a campsite, and wild red deer often appear. Chairlift tickets cost about £15–20. Service may be suspended in high winds. In winter, you can rent equipment and take lessons.
