The video describes the path from Dumgoyn to Earl's Seat and then to Slackdhu starting from the Glengoyne Distillery as a Loop. The weather was rather bad and the hole trip was more a navigation exercise :wink:

Anyway, from Earl's Seat we took the middle path down and by the next fence we hiked up the hill always following the fence before turning slightly right which let us to another fence and grahams cairn. From here we just followed the path up Slackdhu and then descending to the forestry road and back to the Glengoyne Distillery.
