Things to see & do in Ballachulish
The village sits on the shore of Loch Leven. Ballachulish used to be the slate capital of Scotland until 1955 and you can still see the disused quarry nearby.
The village is split in three – North Ballachulish, South Ballachulish and Ballachulish Village and the divide was naturally around the loch at its narrowest point where a passenger ferry used to carry those wishing passage to the north across the loch. In 1975 the current Ballachulish Bridge was opened which now links both sides of the loch
There's a wide range of activities available including mountain biking with miles of forest tracks, fishing, Kayaking, Golf and skiing.
