Buachaille Etive Mor from Meall a Burraidh in Glencoe

"Devil's Staircase" on route of West Highland Way

from Glencoe to Kinlochleven

The name was given by the soldiers
who were part of the road building program
 of General Wade.

 The carrying of building materials
up this stretch of the road was not popular!
The name was perpetuated when some of the workers
 building the Blackwater Dam
chose to travel to the nearest pub at the Kingshouse Inn
 after their wages had been paid
- the journey to the Kingshouse Hotel
proved more difficult than expected
and the return journey even worse on unsteady legs
- on a cold winter’s night,
 the devil often ”claimed his own“.
