About Kilmichael Forest

Please note that due to recent storm damage all trails are closed at Achnabreac. We will notify you as soon as we can when they are to re-open. Sorry for the inconvenience (as at January 2012).

The main forest of Kilmichael covers over 30 square miles between Lochgilphead and Minard with the A83 trunk road as its south eastern boundary.

Kilmichael is a busy working forest producing many thousand tonnes of timber each year. Due to the size of the forest there are many quiet areas where you can take in the views, look out for wildlife or just enjoy discovering the forest.

How to get there:

Kilmichael Forest is part of Kilmichael Forest. Lochgilphead is the nearest town or village.

From Glasgow, follow the A82 to Tarbert then the A83 through Inverary, to Minard and Lochgilphead.

From Oban, follow the A816 to Lochgilphead then the A83 towards Minard.
