Kinnoull Hill run

This is a nice route and offers some spectacular scenery. The downside of the area is that there is so many paths that it is very easy to get lost in. So you do need a map on this one or a sense of adventure. There are signs all over the woods so you will find your way back to the car park when you need it. So far we have only ran in this area once so perhaps with some local input to this a simpler route could be found.

We headed west from the car park over the main road. The forest seems to be cut into two by the road with a west and an east section. Both are small so you really need to combine both to get anywhere near a decent length.

Although most of the route is in the trees the route does open out at Kinnoull tower just before the mark where the views are really good. The tower is one of those landmarks you drive past so many times so it feels rather weird being up close and personal with it.

Once past the tower you are again mostly in amongst the trees but with the route opening out every so often. The area is very popular with cyclists so pay attention especially if you decide to go on the smaller trails.

Enjoy and hopefully don't get lost.
