What is the best Glencoe hike(s) to do with children? Our 9-year-old is athletic, but I don't want to pick anything too difficult. Thank you!

We hiked around Glencoe Lochan (listed in the RS book) about a week ago. There are a lot of paths that start in the car park and they are well-marked. I'm going to put out a trip report soon that includes this info, but it was good for us because I was able to just enjoy the lake and mountain views, while my husband took a more challenging path (but still pretty easy, he said).

Hi Haley -
How about a slightly strenuous/ambitious walk into the Lost Valley, or Coire Garbhail to give it its proper name in Gaelic. For details of the walk, see here:

There’s even a guide on the web page to pronunciation so you can say where you’ve been in Gaelic!
