- Loch Etive winds its way up almost as far as Glen Coe, in fact you can see it from the Buachaille Etive Mòr ridge (here it is). Julia Bradbury walked up to the Hidden Valley which is under Bidean nam Bian, the highest of the Glen Coe peaks, and which is also visible from the Buachaille Etive Mòr ridge - again, here it is.
- She also visited the Whaligoe steps which are just a few miles south-ish of Wick, as recently featured here.
