Explore Cowal

A great turn out for this walk led by Arthur French, 21 eager attendees from far and wide participated in the walk to Lochan Chuilceachan. The lochan sits roughly 360mts above sea level.

The route starts off on a forest path through natural woodland, following the cascading burn.

Without the shelter of the woodland, the open hill provided exposure to the freshening breeze. A feint track winds its way up the hill, passing through a gate and onto the moorland to the lochan.

Stopping  the boundary of the adjacent forest for shelter, lunch was enjoyed overlooking the windswept landscape. The abandoned rowing boat tethered to the fence providing evidence that the are (or were) fish within the body of water.

Unfortunately the weather didn’t hold for the descent, spirits were drunk and spirits were high for the return despite the driving precipitation.
