Description

Knockan Crag National Nature Reserve is a geological natural wonder where you can marvel at some of the oldest rocks in the world, some 3 billion years old.

Three marked trails of varying difficulty lead through a picturesque landscape of moorland and bog, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and lakes.

This is a unique place where the Earth's history has been written in the rocks, and the Moine Thrust - a formation formed by the collision of two continents - provides a fascinating outdoor geology lesson.
