Wander through the glen, past alpine wildflowers

There’s something for everyone at Glen Doll. Picnic beside the South Esk burn or choose from six scenic trails. There's a trail to the dramatic Corrie Fee, a National Nature Reserve. It's an amazing natural amphitheatre carved by a glacier.

The trails meander beside rushing burns in the valley floor. Above the woods there are breathtaking viewpoints. Watch for climbers exploring the craggy valley sides and rare alpine plants that arrived here during the last Ice Age. You may even spot a golden eagles circling overhead.
