Clach na Criche

Take a wish when you are Morvern Bound at Clach na Criche. This Wishing Stone is steeped in local folklore and in ancient times if you filled your mouth with water from the local spring and passed through the stone three times without touching the sides or swallowing the water your wishes would surely come true.

This interesting feature is formed from a dyke that intruded into surrounding rocks some 60 million years ago. The surrounding rock has long been eroded to reveal the dyke as prominent outcrop with its large angular 'wishing hole' in its centre.

Park at the Forestry Commission Car Park. The Wishing Stone is a short walk west from the car park.
