The road down Glen Etive is a dead end, so it doesn't get too much traffic. It is a beautiful glen, leading to Loch Etive. The road passes along the foot of Buachaille Etive Mor before entering a forest. The path up to the Robbers' Waterfall crosses the River Etive and then starts to climb. Unfortunately, with the rain of the past few days, the burns higher up were in spate, so I couldn't get right up to the waterfall.
I retraced my route and drove to the end of the road. The broken jetty is a sign that not much sea traffic comes this way these days!
On the way back up the glen, I encountered this fella and his better half. She wasn't keen to have her photo taken, but he was pleased to oblige.
