πŸ“Œ Crianlarich Hills, Stirling
β˜…β˜…β˜…

If you’ve attempted the sodden hill path to Beinn Chabhair, you’ll know there’s a lot of water up there. Well, it has to go somewhere: specifically, into the Ben Glas Burn. This cascades into Glen Falloch above Invernarnan, and after heavy rain the white curtain of Beinglas Falls can clearly be seen billowing out from the hillside above the A82. Cross the burn at Beinglas Farm (using the footbridge on the West Highland Way) and follow the steep trail up the south bank for the best view of the drop. The burn is quite “flashy” in volume: i.e. it responds quickly to heavy rain, but don’t bother visiting after dry weather.
