Re: Glen Roy parallel roads: GOOD NEWS!

Aye, but poor old Ben Lui and others:

http://www.grough.co.uk/magazine/2015/08/15/scotland-to-gain-new-great-trossachs-nature-reserve-but-lose-six-others

"The six areas which are no longer reserves don’t fit the criteria for NNRs, the board said. Ben Lui, near Tyndrum, though popular with hillwalkers, has no central point for people to engage with the reserve and no visitor facilities, it said. “The landscape interest of the area is high, but it is part of a very high quality backdrop which offers many other fine views,” it said."

So Ben Lui has no central point for people to engage with the reserve? By "central point" do they mean gift shop, toilet and cafe? Surely the hill itself and the wild surrounds is the whole point?
