The gravel track takes you from Dollar towards Glendevon is fantastic in both directions and overlooks Castle Campbell. The 15th century fortress sits in an enviable, dramatic position above Dollar Glen. The oldest part of the castle is the 15th century tower.

Castle Campbell was home to the powerful Campbell earls of Argyll with significant historical figures visiting like Mary Queen of Scots and John knox. The castle is open to visitors however at time of writing (08/12/22) it is closed due to ongoing masonry work.

Gravel track that take you from Dollar round to Glendevon, cracking fun in both directions. Probably better to come at it via Glendevon as it's all downhill into dollar village from here.
