Location

Two RYLA weeks take place each year in July - one for boys and one for girls. They are held at the Abernethy Trust's Outdoor and Adventure Centre at Ardeonaig, situated midway between Killin and Kenmor, overlooking Loch Tay and the surrounding hills.

The location, the facilities and the staff combine to ensure the ideal mix for an enjoyable and memorable experience from which those participating will derive great benefit.
