'''Strath Fillan''' is a valley in western [[Perthshire]], down which flows the River Fillan. The valley stretches from [[Tyndrum]] to [[Crianlarich]], and at Crianlarich, the glen turns a corner and becomes [[Glen Dochart]]. The river likewise enters [[Loch Dochart]] and emerges as the [[River Dochart]].<br />
<br />
Strath Fillan has long been a major route through the highlands; the A82 road, the West Highland Line, and the [[West Highland Way]] long-distance footpath all follow the valley.<br />
<br />
The valley is named after an 8th-century Irish hermit monk known as Saint Fillan.<br />
<br />
Strathfillan is situated in an area of dramatic natural beauty, surrounded by high hills. It has two main villages, which are those at its head and at its foot – Crianlarich and Tyndrum – and some dispersed settlements are scattered between them.<br />
<br />
The Strathfillan Community Development Trust was formed in 1997. It provides low cost rental housing for local residents and manages amenity woodland.<br />
