BEN VENUE

This article appears in Volume V03, Page 754 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BEC-BER
BEN VENUE , a
mountain
  in
south
 -west Perthshire,
Scotland
 , 10 m. W. of Callander. Its
principal
  peaks are 2393 and 2386 ft. high, and, owing to its position near the
south
 -eastern shore of Loch Katrine, its imposing contour is one of the most
familiar
  features in the scenery of the Trossachs, the
mountain
  itself figuring prominently in The Lady of the Lake. On its northern base, close to the lake, Sir Walter Scott placed the Coir-nan-Uriskin, or " Goblin's Cave." Immediately to the south of the cave is the dell called Beal(ach)-nam-Bo, or " Cattle Pass," through which were driven to the
refuge
  of the Trossachs the herds lifted by the Highland marauders in their excursions to the lands south of Loch Lomond. The pass, though comparatively unvisited, offers the grandest scenery in the
district
 .
