The River Glass (Gaelic: Abhainn Ghlais) is a river in Inverness-shire which flows north-eastwards down Strathglass. It begins at the confluence of the River Affric and the Abhainn Deabhag, near the village of Tomich. It is joined by the River Cannich near the village of Cannich, then flows as far as a confluence with the River Farrar near Struy, from which point the merged waters are known as the River Beauly.[1][2][3]

  • Fasnakyle Bridge, unclassified road
