This attractive short walk follows easy farm and forest tracks, circling the Tom Dubh wood. The path runs around the periphery of the wood providing some very attractive views of Glenlivet, the Cromdale hills and Ben Rinnes.
From the Croft Inn take the unclassified road which cuts off the B9009 just opposite the Inn and walk about 100m to join a farm road which heads off to the left. Follow this track through the fields to the forest gate, then cross over the fence at the stile. The forest road can then be followed in either direction around the edge of the wood. Return via the same route.
Glenlivet welcomes you to explore its tracks and byways. |
