Loch Goil

Following recent weather conditions, we would advise anyone visiting the forest to exercise extra caution as there are likely to be blown trees and storm damage which we have not had the opportunity to make safe.  We are currently working to inspect all our facilities and forest blocks, if you do come across anything of concern please do report it to us on 01369 860 703.

At the end of the last century, Lochgoilhead was described as ‘not easily surpassed for beauty of situation and its fine scenery’.

After only a few hundred metres on this winding single-track road, dropping into Gleann-Mor, you feel as of you have been plunged into the remotest parts of the West Highlands.

In spring these woods gleam with fresh green leaves and fairly pulsate with bird song.

There will be onging construction here for the next 12 months, so please be aware of construction traffic on the Arboretum Road and the Inveronich track.
