Knockan Crag ("crag of the small hill") is the site of the first thrust fault discovered (and eventually to be understood as such) anywhere in the world. The crag recognised as a national nature reserve due to its geological features.

On site facilities include a car park and interpretation centre, along with three waymarked trails.
