We've been to the Burn O' Vat before, but after finding the WalkHighlands website, decided to try something a bit more strenuous than the 30 minute walks. We chose the Culblean Circuit and set off in lovely blue skies with a light breeze. Heading up to the viewpoint, we got a great view of Loch Kinord. Still climbing along a single track, we got to a 4x4 track and headed even higher up hill before a panoramic view of farmlands between pine trees opened up in front of us. Heading down the track we got to a farm and had to cross a boggy section before crossing the B9119 and walking beside some farms. We headed past Loch Kinord again and then back to the visitor centre.
Rating: 8/10
Warning
Please note that hillwalking when there is snow lying requires an ice-axe, crampons and the knowledge, experience and skill to use them correctly. Summer routes may not be viable or appropriate in winter. See winter information on our skills and safety pages for more information.
