Crinan Moss Cairn(s) View all content for Crinan Moss

We've all seen cairns, waded across to cairns, climbed up to cairns, walked miles to cairns - sometimes with lots to see, sometimes with very little to see. This cairn is a bit of everything except you can hardly see it as most of is in a small loch beneath the water. However what you can see is the top of a slab and when the wind calms down you can just about make out the side slabs of a chamber or cist. In Aberdeenshire we have had a lot of rain this year, it appears to be same over in the west - will have to take a snorkel next time. If heading across the B8025 - Crinan Moss road, there is a crossroads, head west. The road has a little kink, stop there, plenty room to not obstruct any traffic. A cairn covered in water sits to the north. Worth a visit, probably in drought conditions. Visited 10/04/2024.
