Cormonachan Falls
Cormonachan Falls
Cormonachan Falls is a tiered waterfall on Cormonachan Burn, set within the ancient Atlantic oak and hazel woodland of Cormonachan Community Woodlands near Lochgoilhead in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. The surrounding 63.
9-hectare woodland — part of the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park — is characterized by rare lichens, bryophytes, and old-growth trees, including a potentially 500-year-old oak.
Reaching the falls is the culmination of a long community effort: the Cormonachan Community Woodlands Association spent 15 years and raised over £250,000 to connect the path network to the waterfall and a nearby medieval settlement, finally opening the Upper Cormonachan Heritage Paths in 2023.
The route passes through woodland threatened by invasive Rhododendron ponticum and self-seeded Sitka spruce, which volunteers continue to manage.
