The village of Ballachulish (/ˌbæləˈxuːlɪʃ/ BAL-ə-KHOO-lish or /ˌbæləˈhuːlɪʃ/, from Scottish Gaelic Baile a' Chaolais [baləˈxɯːlˠ̪ɪʃ]) in Lochaber, Highland, Scotland, is centred on former slate quarries. The name Ballachulish (Ballecheles, 1522 – Straits town,) was more correctly applied to the area now called North Ballachulish, to the north of Loch Leven, but was usurped for the quarry villages at East Laroch and West Laroch, either side of the River Laroch, which were actually within Glencoe and South Ballachulish respectively.

The Devil's Staircase on Thhe West Highland Way looks very formidable on the trail maps. In reality, I didn't find it either that steep, or as twisty as represented on the maps. It was a nice hike up and over; and the views along the way, and especially from the summit, were very nice. This section of the WHW was very crowded, mostly with dayhikers and locals; but not unbearably so. I did pass many people on the ascent - which is normally not my standard - but I was intent on avoiding a potential rain storm if possible. The summit is rather obvious but there is no permanent marking of the summit.

In summer our chairlift provides access to spectacular panoramic viewpoints and a variety of exciting biking and walking trails, we also offer archery lessons and our log cabin cafe is open throughout the year serving home cooked food with a fantastic scenic view.
Drove over to Glencoe while on holiday nearby. Had a really hearty breakfast of rolls with bacon and potato scones at the café. We then had a ride on the chairlift and a climb up to the summit through the happy valley. Stopped to have a look in the haggis trap but sadly there wasn't any hiding that day! Really amazing views and the staff are great!

The cycle path from North Connel to Ballaxhulish is now completely off the main road with a great new section at Duror through the Highland Titles Nature Reserve. It's a beautiful cycle - reasonably flat with some hillier sections, but worth it for the views. Highly recommended
