Description: | The valley is that of the Allt Gleann Tulacha that flows into Lochan Fada. The main crags are formed of Lewisian hornblende-schist, while to the right are pale acid gneisses. The base of the cliffs and grassy hollow is mica-schist of the Loch Maree 'series'. Lower ground in between comprises mica-schist also of Lewisian age. The region forms part of the Southern Laxfordian belt. The magnificent cliffs stretch for a distance of six miles in a north-westerly direction. |
