TOP 6 REASONS
Hill walking Safety - the unspoilt beauty of the Angus
Glens means that way markings and route signs are few and
far between and there's a good chance you won't meet other
walkers on the routes.
Adequate preparation for walking is essential, especially
as the Scottish weather is so unpredictable - always check
the weather before you set off. We recommend you have full
waterproof clothing with walking boots, (we can supply the
boots and waterproofs if needed) hat, gloves, food and
drink, maps and directions (which we supply) and for most
walks, the ability to do some basic map reading and
navigation. Check the grading of the walk before you
choose your holiday and contact us if you have questions.
