Aaron's WalkWalking route9.7 km

A route that takes in the historical sites around Abernethy but with minimal stretches on road. It was suggested by walking group regular Aaron who comes from Abernethy. The first half is very easy and flat. The second half involves steep hill climbs.

Good track to bridge at Culfargie then tricky navigation around solar farm, then good tracks again.
