The Pass of Killicrankie

The Pass of Killiecrankie is a gorge at the lower end of Glen Garry in Atholl, Scotland. It leads from Glen Garry into Strath Tummel. The A9 Road, the Highland Main Line, and a former military road all run through the pass. The village of Killiecrankie lies at its northern end.

Killiecrankie is part of the Loch Tummel National Scenic Area, [1] one of 40 such areas in Scotland, which are defined so as to identify areas of exceptional scenery and to ensure its protection by restricting certain forms of development. [2]
