Cruachan Dam Visitor Centre

I thought it was all excellent - very friendly staff from the moment we arrived right through to cafe and the tour. We ordered bacon rolls in the spacious clean cafe and delighted to receive very generous portions. Food was very well priced as was the entry fee at only £7.50 for adult and £2.50 for a child. The tour itself was great, really cool going through the tunnel and amazing to see how it generates the electricity. Our two guides were really helpful and funny. Overall a great experience and as tour is only an hour its easy to stop, do the tour, then continue on to next destination. Would advise booking it though as its popular! very easy to book online through their site. 10 out of 10 overall it was excellent for a short informative tour.

Amazing beautiful place ...what a fantastic day ...climb at the beginning is a bit harsh but levels out ...well worth a visit on way up to Ben cruachan

Such an awesome piece of engineering in the mountains. Stunning place too. The views are great and it's so so quiet at the top of the dam. Would love to explore more. We went to the visit centre too which was interesting.

A very informative and interesting tour and lovely views over the loch. The lady on the front desk was lovely and helpful. She took the time to recommend some other local places to visit as we were leaving. A great place to visit.

A great visit, interesting chatting to the guides listening to the story of the power station.There were some informative displays and models within the station and gift shop area.Particularly interesting was the media display showing you live where in the country power was being generated and by what method.Shame we aren't making more use of water power particularly in areas where water tradionally is abundant and usable not just as a water source but as power generation, even on smaller scales.

Brilliant visitors centre with a great Cafe (amazing soup!!) and lovely gift shop, well worth stopping in. The tour of the Power Station was really interesting and great value. Andy did a great tour and all the staff were lovely, especially Mark who helped us out. Highly recommend!!

Free visitor centre has lots of information about construction of the power station and the different electricity generation methods, as well as a cafe. Numbers limited on tour into the mountain (£7.50 for adults) due to size of minibus.

Whilst working at the visitor centre, installing electric vehicle chargers, the staff could not be any nicer or any more helpful. Big Mark was a gentleman and a great laugh. Will be sure to drop in, in the future whenever going by. 5 out of 5.

Had a coffee in the cafe better than most we have had this holiday and arrived just as the scones came out the oven could not resist and absolutely delicious. Lovely staff.

We had a good visit here. All the staff were very smartly dressed and rather friendly. We had a tour inside hollow. Our guide was very informative and happy to take any questions we had. It was impressive to a point however it was rather a whistle stop tour with short abrupt showings of their underground galleries. The visitor centre had a lot of information to offer and some nice visual presentations.We also walked to the dam, note that there are signs in the car park advising that car park will shut at 4:45pm so please park somewhere else.
