About the walk:  

Badandun Hill provides the high point to a walk down and through the high ground between Glen Isla and Glen Finlet to the east. The route winds round, rather than over, the lesser hills and visits Lochs Shandra and Auchintaple. Badandun Hill at 740m is, of course another Graham for those interested (see walk 14). On a clear day there are good views down into Glen Isla and northwards of the Munros in the Caenlochan National Nature Reserve. Kirkton of Glenisla Hotel provides a fitting terminus for refreshments.
