Overview

We will begin our walk by following the Moness Burn through the beautiful Birks of Aberfeldy before joining the Rob Roy Way at the Falls of Moness. The Way will take us alongside the Urlar Burn before we leave it to climb a short distance to join a track leading back towards Aberfeldy along another section of the Rob Roy Way. The short climb affords wonderful views north east to Ben Vrackie and, beyond it, to Beinn A Ghlo. Later, as we return to Aberfeldy the views are of the Farragon Hill ridge and, further west, of Schiehallion and the Glen Lyon hills.
