This is a chance to climb Scotland’s most easterly Munro. The walk starts through the beautiful upper part of Glen Esk, passing the Queen’s Well. The ascent then starts, firstly by a steep zigzagging path and then by a long steady ascent with the target always in sight. From the summit there is a very extensive view across Deeside. The return is by the same route.

An interesting route with good views into Glen Muick and across the Cairngorms, all on good tracks. An old right of Way is taken from Glen Doll to the Spittal of Lock Muick. Returning via the banks of Loch Muick, Alan’s Hut and Bachnagairn. From here, the route follows the impressive steep sided glen back to Glen Doll car park.

We follow the path from near the Scott monument (erected in memory of Captain Scott who stayed in the glen before going off to the Antarctic) to the Airlie Monument (erected in memory of the 9th Earl of Airlie) and, while admiring the extensive views in all directions, follow the ridge northwards by The Goal and Cairn Leith to pick up the Minister's Path to Glen Clova and follow the River South Esk to the Glen Clova Hotel for refreshments. The path is generally good but with a few wet areas.

This walk follows the River North Esk on good tracks and will be a countryside stroll. The ground is good underfoot and there is little climbing involved, however it is a fair distance. Hear about the ecosystem of the river and the wildlife it supports both under and above the water. There will also be a chance to visit The Retreat Folk Museum for a look round and for tea and buns.

An attractive and varied clockwise circuit from Kirriemuir taking in Loch of Kinnordy wetlands (bird reserve), fine mature woodland, and a stretch of Roman Road. The history of the area will be explained.

This is a favourite local walk. A wooded trail follows the River North Esk upstream, across the Highland Boundary Fault to the Rocks of Solitude with their unusual geology. The return is mainly by the same route. The walk includes a visit to The Burn House for a tour of the Mansion House and Gardens, including teas. (Costs for Admission and Tea included.)

Crombie Country Park is situated five miles north west of Carnoustie. The Park is signposted from the A92 Dundee to Arbroath trunk road. Set in 100 hectares of mixed woodland there is a good surfaced trail around the picturesque reservoir. Good opportunities to observe the wildlife, which may include Little & Great Crested grebes, woodpecker and other water and woodland birds. In the woodland glades, green-veined butterflies, tortoiseshell and peacock butterflies may be flying. Giant Sequoias and Chilean Pine are a feature in the formal areas. Transport is not provided for this walk, the charge is £5 and includes Afternoon Tea.
