Gorse Bush Hell

Highlight • Trail

Ok I didn’t get a picture of the gorse bushes but I would go another way , maybe after sawmill don’t turn off for wellingtons monument , go straight on past farm and join forestry road or you will be scratched and pricked to hell and probably a puncture .

View of Plantain Loch

Highlight • Forest

This viewpoint over Plantain Loch is a stunning spot to stop and take in the beautiful pine fringed waters. There's a little trail straight down the hillside from the fire road above, then traverse north on the main shared walkers path ( the walkers path southwards has some unrideable features)
