Peter Fleming Cairn on Rannoch Moor

Highlight • Viewpoint

This 2m high cairn is on the west side of the West Highland Way near its highest point on Rannoch Moor at Gualann Laith Ghiubhais. It was constructed in memory of Peter Fleming, brother of James Bond author Ian Fleming, who died of a heart attack in this area on 18th August 1971.

Pond on the Old Military Road

Highlight • Lake

Stay in this area on the old military road even if tracks say otherwise. The alleged path disappears and you get wet feet in the moor

Glencoe Mountain Resort on the West Highland Way

Highlight • Rest Area

The Glencoe Ski Resort is a brilliant base for adventures, with walking, running and mountain bike trails in the summer and ski runs in the winter. There is a café and other facilities at the centre and accommodation on site. The West Highland Way trail passes close to the centre and makes a very easy detour. This is mile 71 (114 km) and acts as checkpoint five of the West Highland Way Race.
