Extend your stay at Gartmorn Dam Country Park

The woodlands on the edge of Gartmorn Dam Country Park make a great extension to the popular circuit round the water. There are fine views over Clackmannanshire and the Firth of Forth, and you can watch for red squirrels scampering among the branches.

There are 3 miles of gravel and earthy paths in the forest, with some short uneven sections and short moderate slopes.
