Macdonald Hotel and Cabins, Kinlochleven

Local Activities

The main activity around Kinlochleven is the West Highland Way.

The West Highland Way  is Scotland's most famous long distance walking path, which extends from Glasgow to Fort William.

 The MacDonald Hotel is situated only 25 metres from the West Highland Way, giving the perfect location for either a food or accommodation stop along the way.

 If walking from the South, follow the West Highland Way marker posts through the village. We are at the far end of the village, 25 metres past the point where the West Highland Way begins its climb towards Fort William.
