Nice little forest hiding the ruins of Dunstaffnage Chapel. The forest is quite muddy in places.

If you look at the castle, you must also go to the small and ruined chapel, which dates back to the 13th century.

The complex is situated on a small rocky peninsula overlooking the coastal landscape north of Oban. Its peninsular location controls the sea routes through the Firth of Lorne and the Sound of Mull, as well as the land route east along Loch Etive and the River Awe. Between the peninsula, the town of Dunbeg and the offshore island of Eilean Mor lies the sheltered bay of Dunstaffnage Bay, which is still used as a harbor today. The immediate rock base on which the castle was built is between 6m and 9m high
