Sron a’Chlachain

 Part 1

From the car park, head into the park behind the hall through the gate on the right hand side.

Go to the left of the circular stone shelter, and head for the diagonally opposite corner.

This is where the walk starts - a gate leads into the field, and you can see the path heading up towards the oak trees.

Just to the left of the gate, is a stone which is said to mark the grave of the mythical giant, Fingal.

He of the Giant's Causeway and Fingal's Cave.

 Part 2

Go through the gate, and the climb begins immediately, heading up towards some oak trees.

Cross the stile, and follow the path which leads steeply through the trees.

Already you have a fine view of Loch Tay

 Part 3

After you leave the trees, you have the choice of climbing straight up a steep grassy hill in front of you, or you can follow the easier path which leads round to the right.

However the two paths meet up again, and you are faced with another steep section, which leads up to some rocky crags.

It looks slightly intimidating from below, but is actually very straightforward.

At this point the rain cleared and a rainbow appeared - bonus!

Finally there is a very steep grassy section which leads up to the cairn on the summit.

 Part 4

At the top, the view up Loch Tay is just beautiful.  Enjoy, before heading back down the same way.
