River Teith

It flows into the River Forth near Drip north-west of Stirling. EtymologyThe name comes from the Scottish Gaelic Uisge Theamhich, which translates into English as the "quiet and pleasant water". CourseThe Teith is formed from the confluence of two smaller rivers: one from Loch Venachar, the Eas Gobhain which translates as "the smith's cascade", and one from Loch Lubnaig - Garbh Uisge which translates as "the rough water". The river flows through Callander and is joined by the Keltie Water 1mi south of Keltie Bridge. The Teith continues to Deanston and Doune where the Ardoch Burn meets it, before its confluence with the (smaller) Forth upstream of Stirling. ImportanceThe Teith is renowned for its fishing and for the splendid arched bridge 1 /2mi southwest of Doune.
