About
Glen Nant protects one of Argyll’s rich Atlantic oakwood and hazelwood rainforests, with rare lichens, mosses and abundant woodland wildlife. The easy Riverbank Trail gives a short accessible introduction, while the Coalers Trail climbs through old and regenerating woodland with interpretation about charcoal making and iron smelting.
