Puck's Glen

Most visitors arrive at Puck's Glen via the A83, turning onto the B8000 towards Dunoon. The glen is approximately a 10-minute drive from the nearest town, making it a popular spot for local and visiting photographers seeking to capture its natural beauty.

Parking:

• The main parking option is the dedicated Puck's Glen car park, located on the B8000. This car park has space for several vehicles and is about a 5-minute walk from the entrance to the glen.
• Alternatively, there are limited roadside parking options along the B8000, but these can be quite busy, especially during weekends and peak seasons. It is advisable to arrive early to secure a spot.

Access:

• The path leading into Puck's Glen is well-defined but can be uneven and muddy in places, particularly after rain. Sturdy footwear is essential, as some sections may be slippery, especially near the waterfalls.
• There are no gates or stiles along the main route, but be prepared for a few steep sections that may require careful navigation. The terrain varies from gravel paths to rocky areas close to the water.
• Puck's Glen is part of Open Access land, allowing free movement, but it’s advisable to stick to marked paths to protect the delicate ecosystem and avoid disturbing any wildlife.
• Photographers should be cautious of the water's edge and any loose rocks, especially when setting up for long exposure shots. The area can be busy with walkers, particularly during the autumn foliage season, so patience is recommended when capturing images.
• For the best light, plan your visit for early morning or late afternoon, and consider autumn for vibrant colours.
