Ballagan Glen is a small Scottish Trust Wildlife Reserve

in a steep narrow ravine carved out by the Ballagan Burn,

that cascades down a series of waterfalls,

including the Spout of Ballagan.

It is notable for its spectacular geological exposures

and ancient ash gorge woodland

- it is a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

Walkers access is by the driveway of Ballagan House.
