About Corlarach
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.
See our main pages on forests around Dunoon.
Rising high above the Firth of Clyde to the east and Loch Striven on the west, Corlarach Forest offers glorious views. It is rich in wildlife and a offers the chance for a good stretch if you feel like it.
The Firth of Clyde and the long-standing sea lochs were centres of activity during the both World Wars. In 1943, an anti-submarine boom stretched from West Bay in Dunoon to the Cloch Lighthouse.
How to get there:
Dunoon is the nearest town or village.
There are two equally appealing approaches to the Corlarach Forest from Glasgow.
By car ferry from Gourock to Dunoon, turn left then follow the A815.
By road, follow the A82 along the western shore of Loch Lomond through Tarbet, entering the Argyll Forest Park at Arrochar. Then follow the A83 onto the A815 to Dunoon.
