Site updated 4th May

Only 2 spare spaces left on walk 1 - Lairig Ghru,

 Changes for this year are focussing on long distance walks; the iconic Lairig Ghru, and also a rarely walked ancient right of way south from the Braemar area and more. 

As usual we offer a range of through walks of different grades of difficulty.  Each walk has transport and leaders.

Our walking festival is part of a wider ranger outdoor activities in the area.  We work closely with Angus Council who have moved their Adventure Weekend to 7th and 8th September.  So why not make a week of it sampling the events of both weekends.

The festival is organised on a voluntary basis by 

Blairgowrie and District Next Steps, supported by

NSC Outdoor Adventures, and Strathmore and the Glens.

 

Accommodation in the area is available in the Royal Hotel or alternatively can be arranged through the Tourist Information Centre

 

If you can't make next year's event or would like to go a little bit further, then similar walks, training, and other opportunities are available throughout the year by visiting  Outdoor Adventures.  If you live in the area then you can take part in our regular weekly walking group Blairgowrie and District Next Steps, who oversee, manage  plan and run the festival.
