Glen Finglas is a glen in the Trossachs, in the Stirling council area of Scotland. It is an area of forest in Highlands of the former county of Perthshire, north of Brig o' Turk, close to Callander in Menteith. To the west is Loch Katrine. A dam and reservoir was built by Glasgow Corporation Water Works, as part of the Loch Katrine water supply project, between 1963 and 1965 to secure the supply of the River Turk and River Finglas.
