Most drivers heading north across Rannoch Moor towards Glencoe find their attention drawn to the rocky pyramid of the north end of Buachaille Etive Mor. As a result many probably don't notice the nearby junction from which a single track road leads south down Glen Etive.
The Glen Etive road meanders for some 14 miles to the head of Loch Etive, where it ends in a turning circle near a ruined pier. And that's it. The road down Glen Etive is the original "road to nowhere". The day we went down this road unfortunately the sun was in the wrong direction for us to get some good images but we shall return next year and extend this page.
