Glencoe - Coire Nan Lochan
As with other sections of the site, you can click on a photo for an enlargement. I hope to add some more photos taken by Al when he has had them developed.
I have only been winter climbing in Scotland once so far, and the guide recommended below is one which myself and Al found to be a good general guide for the region. There are more detailed, specific guides availible, but I have not used these.

As you are going down the pass of Glencoe towards Loch Leven and the Vilage of Glencoe, you will find two parking regions as you descent towards Loch Achtriochtan. Directly opposite the second of these is the valley leading to Coire Nan Lochan.
