About Gartmorn Dam

Gartmorn Dam is a 170 acre reservoir at the heart of a country park and nature reserve near Sauchie and Alloa in Clackmannanshire, managed by Clackmannanshire Council. The water holds pike, perch and trout and fishing is by permit, arranged through the council Countryside Rangers on 01259 450000. The surrounding 370 acre park is a Site of Special Scientific Interest with a car park and waterside trails, so it suits a family day as much as a dedicated session.
