Glencoe village
Glencoe village is on the southern shore of Loch Leven, mainly just a long narrow street. Just outside the village, one can find the monument dedicated to the fallen Macdonalds of Glencoe during the 1692 massacre. A small folk museum is the sole attraction in the village, which relies more on the beautiful surrounding mountains to attract visitors.

A few miles South of Glencoe village is the visitor center, part of the National Trust for Scotland, set in fine woodland, with views over to the pass of Glencoe. The visitor center presents an exhibition (£5 for an adult) about the area's history and nature. There is also a small cafe.
