Cross the road from where you park onto the cycle path beside Lagnaha farm B+B.
Follow the the path to the left and you will see a farm gate on your right and you should be able to see the old Dolomite quarry further up the hill. This is where you will be heading.
Keep to the fence on the right of the river. When you come to a blue rope it could be useful to reach the Cache.
The path is steep and slippery so care is needed as is waterproofs and good footwear.
If you decide to venture higher up the views are spectacular on a clear day.
here is a bit of history of where you are going.
During the Jacobite rising of 1745-6, the Appin Stewarts, led by Charles Stewart of Ardsheal, were out for Bonnie Prince Charlie and fought for him at Culloden. After the prince's defeat, Stewart of Ardsheal went into hiding from the government troops. Tradition has it he hid in a cave behind a waterfall, close to the village of Duror on the Ardsheal Peninsula.
Charles Stewart V of Ardsheal was reputedly a man of great personal strength and supposed to be one of the best swordsmen in the Highlands. In a fight with Rob Roy, he wounded him and Roy was then supposed to have thrown his sword into Lochvoil and declared that Ardsheal was the first man who had bloodied him.
Very few records remain of Ardsheal´s life from before 1739 as many of the family papers were destroyed when the house at Ardsheal was sacked and burned after Culloden. However he was a Jacobite and kept up a correspondence with the Stuart Court in exile. Dugald Stewart, the 10th of Appin was a child at the time of the Uprising in 1745 - he acted as tutor or head of the Appin Clan and this why he led the Appin Regiment during the ´45 rather than his nephew.
He married Isabel Haldane in 1732 daughter of John Haldane, 2nd of Lanrick (1677-1764) and Margaret Murray.
Ardsheal was attainted for high treason on the 8th June 1746. He was specifically excepted from the Act of Indemnity in 1747. Before escaping to France he spent a few weeks concealed in a cave on his estate, still called Ardsheal´s cave, on the hill of Ardsheal, being brought food by some of his tenants. It is likely that he had managed to escape by September 1746 leaving his wife and children. There are some accounts that state that he remained there in the cave until his wife gave birth and fled at this point realising that there would be no amnesty that would cover him. However in December the house was sacked and burned and his wife was forced to flee whilst heavily pregnant with her other 5 children. Anne Stewart was born on the 17th of December 1746. On the 20th December Lady Ardsheal took her children to stay with relatives in Stirling. Lady Ardsheal eventually joined him in exile.
14 May 1752 Colin Campbell of Glenure - the red Fox was shot near Ballacheulish.
8 November. James Stewart [James of the Glen], brother of Charles Stewart of Ardsheal was hanged for having been an accessory to the murder of Colin Campbell. Many still believe he was innocent. There is more detail on this elsewhere in the entry on Appin Murder.
Charles Stewart V of Ardsheal died in Sens, France in 1757.
