About this wood

Crinan Wood rises 100 metres above the picturesque village of Crinan, and the famous Crinan canal. From this vantage point, visitors can lose themselves in the spectacular views west to the Isle of Jura and north to Mull. Looking across Crinan Loch, they can marvel at the historic 12th Century Duntrune Castle and survey the 1200 boggy acres of National Nature Reserve.
