A Clunie wslk but no sign of George
Route: Clunie walk, Pitlochry
Date walked: 19/09/2017
Time taken: 3 hours
Distance: 11.5km
Wanting a restfull day but to still keep the legs moving we decided to follow the Clunie path.
Walked it clockwise and did manage to see the elusive red squirrel which was a bonus.
Once out of the forest we ventured out onto the bleak featurless open moorland that has been ploughed with a view to being planted.
As a result of the on going work on the electric pylons we soon found our selves trudging along and through a muddy slippery track.
A bit dissapointed in the walk and we actually wish we had done a linear to Strathtay instead as an option.
Still we were out in the open fresh air of our home from home.
