Loch Goil
 

At the end of the last century Lochgoilhead was described as "not easily surpassed for beauty of situation and fine scenery" Within a few hundred metres on this winding single - track road, dropping into Gleann - Mor, you will feel you have plunged back into the remotest parts of the West Highlands. In spring these woods gleam in fresh green leaf and fairly pulsate with bird song.
