Blackwater Reservoir

Kinlochleven

This circuit explores the industrially-exploited but today very beautiful and peaceful Glen Leven, including a visit to the bleak Blackwater Dam.

Terrain - Good paths and tracks for most of the walk. There are a few boggy sections and the section of the walk below the dam is pathless and rough.

Grade 3
