Overview

This is a walk of around 15km / 9 miles, with 550m of ascent over the hill Pressendye. It's a circular walk, beginning and ending in Tarland, which is about a 50 minute drive from Aberdeen.

The walk should take around 4-5 hours.

The walk is on tarmac roads, landrover tracks, and heathery paths, so please pick your shoees accordingly - bits of it can be quite muddy at times. The top of the route is fairly exposed, and will be chilly at this time of year - please bring plenty of warm clothes.
