Site updated 14th May 2008 For 2008 yet more new walks - 23 in total! New hills, as well as some old favourites, including the Cateran Trail. Ranging from Easy themed riverside walks to long distance routes, Munro, Corbett, Graham and even Marilyn bagging and two classics; Tarmachan Ridge and Jock's Road. New activities and another first; guided night time walks - one to the top of a Munro and the other a Ranger guided nature walk around Blairgowrie.
Even at this early stage some walks are getting full and we are now starting a second group for Jock's Road
As with last year a brochure is not going to be distributed, which saves around half a million sheets of paper and ink. However a text based document (in Word™ format) is available for download here. If you need a viewer to read it, one can be downloaded here.
