Acharn Woods

Length: 5m / 8km.
Start: From the West car park near the bridge at the falls of Dochart, Killin
 
Easy up, steep down on forest tracks.

From the West car park near the bridge at the falls, cross the Dochart Bridge and then head west along the main road.

Opposite the war memorial, walk up the track between the two bungalows, through the big gate and right on to the old railway line.

Follow this until you reach the point where a number a tracks cross. Turn left and the route rises steadily, before falling away steeply and back to the big gate where the walk started.

During the Acharn Woods walk, you will encounter open views to the west up Glen Dochart and eastwards along Loch Tay and it's enclosing mountains.
