Glen Carron redirects here. For the New Zealand football team, see Glen Carron (soccer). River Carron is a west coast river in Wester Ross, in the Highlands of Scotland. The river rises in Ledgowan Forest. It gathers its head-streams through Carron Bog, then enters Loch Scaven and flows out from there. From Achnashellach the river meanders 19 kilometres southwest through the broad strath of Glen Carron and expands at one part into Loch Doule (or Doughaill).
