This superb walk follows paths across the flanks of the hill overlooking Strathpeffer before climbing up to the ridge to visit the site of a vitrified fort with wonderful views. It then continues along the ridge to a minor summit before a final, rougher descent.

Terrain

Mostly easy to follow paths, slightly muddy in places. The descent from Cnoc Mòr is rougher and very steep and but this can be avoided if desired.

Public Transport

Strathpeffer is served by local buses.

Start

Blackmuir Wood Forestry car park. Open start point in Google Maps for directions.
