Kinlochleven
Kinlochleven is a town situated in Lochaber, in the Scottish Highlands and lies at the eastern end of Loch Leven. To the north exist the Mamores ridge; to the south lie the hills flanking Glen Coe. The village was developed from 2 formerly separate tiny neighborhoods - Kinlochmore to the north of the River Leven in Inverness-shire as well as Kinlochbeg to the south of the Leven in Argyll - complying with the construction of an aluminium smelter and connected real estate for its workers. The processing plant was powered by a hydroelectric scheme located in the mountains over, and also made Kinlochleven the very first village in the world to have every home linked to electrical energy, creating the phrase "The Electric Village". In 1991, the village (according to annual census returns) had simply over 1000 residents in some 420 homes. Today it is a notable vacationer location and also centre for hill quests.
