Killearn is a picturesque village in the Stirling council area of Scotland, set on the southern edge of the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park and overlooked by the distinctive conical hill Dumgoyne, part of the Campsie Fells. It sits in the Strathendrick valley beside the Endrick Water, with traditional stone buildings and a historic kirk that make it a popular base for walkers and cyclists.
Historically rooted in agriculture and estate life, Killearn now combines rural character with commuter links to Glasgow, an active community-run shop and village hall, and a steady stream of visitors drawn by nearby hills and Loch Lomond; conservation, local events and outdoor recreation all play a visible part in village life and the local economy.
