Gleann Dubh Descent

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Following the Ardchyle Burn, the descent of Gleann Dubh is awe inspiringly pretty, and very fast - so do keep your eyes peeled for the occasional spicy bit.

River Crossing in Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park

Highlight • River

Based on the maps, there's an option to continue down the east-side of the river (don't cross) and join the old railway path further down. During high runoff this is probably a better option.

Ardchyle Burn Ford

Highlight • River

At the end of the Gleann Dubh descent you'll need to ford Ardchyle Burn. It's best avoided after rainfall as the water levels can be raised to dangerous levels.

And Rob was lord below.
