Terrain description

Craig a Barns is just north of Dunkeld, and is a tough area, on a steep craggy hill, often quite rough underfoot. The terrain is complex; a forested plateau split by a series of parallel valleys, with many crags, fallen trees and some areas of bracken.

Used for Regional or National events, including JK 2012 and Strathearn 2019 (Scottish 6 Days).
