A small, but beautiful wooden glen. The terrain goes from mountain
to coast very fast. Streams, which include the Dhoon, fall down
waterfalls on their way to the sea.
This is the very difficult glen to walk. The paths are rugged with steep
inclines and are often wet from random streams of water. It is not a glen
for gentle strolls for it will make you work to see its unique beauty.
