About Creag Noran Viewpoint

The path takes you through a regenerating native woodland to a viewpoint were you can enjoy superb views of Loch Achray, Achray Forest, Ben A'an, Ben Venue and the Trossachs.

The viewpoint path is a short loop walk with a firm surface.

How to get there:

Creag Noran Viewpoint can be started from Ben Venue in Loch Ard Forest which is part of Queen Elizabeth Forest Park. Aberfoyle is the nearest town or village.

From Aberfoyle, follow the Dukes Pass north.

At the head of Loch Achray there is a new car park on your left hand side just beyond the Achray Hotel.
