THE FINEST
NATURAL
ENVIRONMENT
IN THE UKThe Ice Factor lies in the village of
Kinlochleven, surrounded by the sweeping
Mamore Mountain (with 13 mountains over
3,000ft) and sandwiched between the World
Heritage Site of Glencoe (6 miles to the South)
and Ben Nevis Range (14 miles to the North).
We make best use of the
incredible playground provided
by nature with regular trip to
Glencoe on the old Military
Road (now the West Highland
Way) to see the massacre site of
1692.
Students can also look
forward to visiting some of the
famous Harry Potter Landmarks
- the Quidditch Tournament is
set in spectacular Steall Falls -
one of the largest free fall
waterfalls in the UK and rock
climbing in Glen Nevis,
where both Braveheart and
Rob Roy were filmed.
Within the village there is
a forrest walk going through some
of the last vestiges of the ancient
Caledonian Forest and the site of a 16th
century coke furnace and 1st World War
POW camp.
But the main beauties are the
abundant mountain and lochs (you could
fit every area of National Park from
England and Wales into just this corner
“Where the Peaks reach the
sky, and the Lochs reach the
sea..”With the UK’s highest mountain, the
mainland’s most westerly point, the nation’s
deepest loch and Western Europe’s last
wilderness area the West Highlands of
Scotland have an abundance of riches for the
outdoor enthusiast.The culture and history of
the region are no less spectacular.
