Forestry Commission depot at Blairadam Forest There's no visitor centre or other facilities for the public at the depot but there is a car park, mainly hidden by the right hand trees. It's accessible from the B914 by a drive of around 1 km. along a well-surfaced tarmac road and gives access to waymarked paths.

Forest road crossing route of old railway The road is in the Blairadam Forest which occupies an area with a coal mining history. The rail route is assumed to be a local one associated with the mining. The brickwork at the left side of the image is surely part of a buttress to a railway bridge. June Hodge has a Geograph image which shows embellishments to the brickwork of the buttress - <a title="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2137643" href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2137643">Link</a>.

Path in Blairadam Forest on south side of Lochornle Burn The broad path is in use as a waymarked walking trail of the Blairadam Forest: the yellow one. The route has just crossed a bridge over the burn which lies below to the left.  A short distance to the east it will merge with the Pieries Burn to form the Kelty Burn.
