Details
Glen Lyon, not one of Scotland's more famous glens, but possibly the narrowest and also unusually longest at some 25 miles. The beauty of this wild and unspoiled glen with its Caledonian Pine forests, lochs and waterfalls is unmatched and in many ways unique.
Glen Lyon is little known, and less visited, and it is only when you look at it on a map that you realise just how significant a presence it is in the Central Highlands.
The glen is a cul-de-sac, which saved it from becoming a major through route in centuries past, or over-popular with tourists today.
