A rocky summit surrounded by the Galloway Forest in Central Dumfries and Galloway, Darnaw rises to 472m (1548 feet) 1¼ miles (2 km) west of Clatteringshaws Loch and 2½ miles (4 km) east southeast of Millfore. A monument located a quarter-mile (0.4 km) northeast of the summit commemorates the four people killed when a De Havilland Dragonfly aircraft crashed here on 2nd February 1937. The memorial was constructed by Daily Express Newspapers, who had chartered the plane and who lost a reporter and photographer in the crash.
