Overview

The walk starts at Annan Water Community Hall.  The trail takes you along Auchencat Burn and through the valley and then steadily  ascends up to Hart Fell Spa, which is a chalyheate spring contained within a small stone structure.  There is a bit of a scramble up the Spa Well Burn, which is steep and loose gravel in places.  There is an option a few hundred yards to climb up the flank of Well Rig avoiding this steep section.  The trail takes you over several hilltops on the descent.
