Overview

The middle of May and the bluebells should be out. A rather convoluted route that will see us explore the Woodland Trust's Kinclaven Wood and also the grounds around Ballathie House Hotel. Most of the walk is on footpaths, some of which require a little care. We will be crossing one fairly busy road twice. The route is rather undulating but there are no sustained ascents.
