Crianlarich Hills

Crianlarich (Scottish Gaelic: A' Chrion Laraich) is a village in Stirling council area and the registration county of Perthshire, Scotland, about six miles north-east of the head of Loch Lomond. The village's name derives from the Gaelic for "low pass", relating to its geographical location.
Crianlarich has been a major crossroads for north and westbound journeys in Scotland since mediaeval times. The village bills itself "the gateway to the Highlands. The village lies in the glen of Strath Fillan at the north western extent of the Trossachs, lying in the shadow of several Munro peaks, notably Ben More, but also Stob Binnein and Cruach Ardrain. Also it lies halfway along the long distance footpath, the West Highland Way. In 2001, the village had a population of 185.
