The small wooded island of Innis Chonain sits in Loch Awe in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. Its name reflects a Gaelic dedication to St Conan and its most striking feature is St Conan's Kirk, an ornate late‑Victorian/Edwardian church set among trees and notable for its carved stonework and eclectic architectural details.
A short stone bridge links the island to the shore, making it an easy and scenic stop for visitors exploring the loch; the kirk draws local interest and occasional weddings, supporting the quiet tourism economy in the surrounding rural communities. The island also provides picturesque views across the water towards Kilchurn Castle and Ben Cruachan, helping to anchor the historic and natural landscape of the area.
