i.e. Bristled Territory, a singularly romantic and picturesque glen of Scotland, Perthshire, between Lochs Katrine and Achray. This rugged and narrow defile is about a mile and a half in length, and was first rendered popular by Sir Walter Scott, in his Lady of the Lake. It consists of a wild confusion of abrupt crags, of the most extraordinary and fantastic forms, which, in some convulsion of nature, have been separated from the neighbouring mountains of Ben Venu and Ben Au. A rich and varied vegetation adds to the beauty of the scene.

"Crag, knolls, and mounds, confusedly huddled, The fragments of an earlier world. So wondrous wild, the whole might seem The scenery of a fairy dream."
