A pair of stone circles at Temple Wood have been seated there since 3000BC and were used for more than 2000 years, during the early Bronze and late Neolithic Age. One of the south stone circles has thirteen standing stones that form a 12-meter diameter ring
After a mile towards southern Kilmartin village, you'll find several clusters of sites at Nether Largie and a car park, with Nether Largie standing stones standing across the road in a field.
Take a short walk to Temple Wood from the Nether Largie stones and view the stone circle featuring a cairn in its center. The surrounding trees were grown during the Victorian period when the area was dubbed Temple Wood. A brief stroll along the path leads you to the South Nether Largie cairn, and an adequately signed route leads you back to the local standing stones and car park.
Trekking further down the road, there's a rocky outcrop comprised of whitewashed buildings on your right.
Folklore has it that the Destiny Stone was used in Dunadd during the crowning of the first Scottish kings.
Climbing up the path towards the whitewashed structures leads you to Dunadd, the Iron Age Fort overlooking the Great Moss that covers around 1200 acres. Our trained and certified tour guides will take you to the Lochbuie Stone Circle in Mull and many others in Bute Island.
