"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“.  |
