The Water of Ruchill

The Water of Ruchill is a small river in Perthshire which is created by the running together of many burns among the Crieff and Loch Earn Hills at the south-western edge of the county, and from the slopes of Ben Vorlich (3,232 feet). The waters unite near the farmstead at Dalchruin and flows north-eastwards from here.

The river carves a small glen, Glenartney, and to the north of the glen is the Forest of Glenartney, a largely treeless area, in contrast to the well-watered glen.

The river joins the River Earn at Comrie.
