Description

Leave Glasgow and head to Finnich's Glen to explore the Devil's Pulpit and a steep staircase called the Devil's Steps. Admire the enchanting forest, unusual rock formations, and the red river.
We'll embark upon a journey whereby we get you to a mystical place, where we'll delve deep into forrest, enjoying the song of the birds and the gushing sound of the gorge underneath us, walk along the gorge, looking down at the amazing waterfalls and taking pictures of it.

Then we will get to an ancient "staircase", where we need to climb down, using the ropes alongside the "stairs" and once we get to the bottom, we'll gaze upon an amazing gorge between the rocks covered with moss, crystal clear water, cold as ice, but a place looking like a haunted scenery out a fairy tale.

This is Finnich Glen, that locals thought of being a place of the devils, an isolated and remote looking area, that gives you the chills and excitement in the same time.

No wonder this place has been used as a scenery for the Outlander movie.

For those brave ones, who want to get further into the glen, you can roll up your pants and get into the water (warning: extremely cold) and walk along and see an amazingly mesmerising world in front of you.

Other things to note
A good head for heights is necessary as it involves climbing down some slippery stairs, holding onto some ropes and rocks !

Highlights

  • Weird looking rock formations surrounding the gorge between them,
  • water flowing like blood, taking up the crimson colour of the ground,
  • mystical place is like no other, hauntingly beautiful, postcard perfect !
