Planning your visit
We want you to enjoy your visit to Glencoe – your safety is our priority. This means we’ve had to make some changes so that we can keep everyone safe. Please read our Guide on what to expect before you set off as well as our Top 10 tips for visiting countryside places.
This property is part of the ‘We’re Good to Go’ scheme, which means we have carried out an official COVID-19 risk assessment to check we have everything in place to reopen safely.
Please be aware that for the health and safety of visitors, volunteers and employees in our hospitality venues, we will record the name and contact details of everyone who enters in order to support NHS Scotland’s Test and Protect. This information will be used to enable NHS Scotland to contact you should you have been in the venue around the same time as someone who has tested positive for coronavirus. We are obliged to process this data to comply with The Health Protection (Coronavirus) (Restrictions) (Scotland) Amendment (No. 11) Regulations 2020. Please see our Data Protection page for further information.
Further to this, in National Trust for Scotland non-hospitality settings, where there is either a pre-booking system in place or there is the potential for close contact (eg in some of our smaller properties), we will ask visitors to provide limited contact information. This is for the purposes of managing the number of visitors and also to support NHS Scotland’s Test and Protect. For further information, please see our Data Protection page.
Our visitor centre has had a major revamp with a new café, shop, exhibition, film screening area and information hub.
Our popular Land Rover safaris allow visitors of all abilities, including wheelchair users, to get a completely different view of the glen and its wildlife.

Facilities & access
We have created a detailed Accessibility Guide for Glencoe & Dalness to assist with your visit.
We’d love you to visit the Euan’s Guide website to review the accessibility of Trust places and tell us (and others) what’s good and where we need to do better.
There is a unisex accessible toilet.
Dogs are welcome in the glen but must be kept under control to avoid disturbing wildlife, either on a lead or returning immediately to the owner’s side on command. Assistance dogs are welcome inside our visitor centre.
We have a hearing loop at some exhibition points and also at the reception desk.
