Overview

A varied route of forest footpaths and minor roads will lead us on a circuit from Drumnadrochit. We will climb to the top of Craigmonie crag where you can enjoy a view of Loch Ness. The walk also takes us to Divach Falls, which is a 30m cascade of water. Also, if we're lucky we may get to see red squirrels.

This walk isn't too taxing but there is a couple of steeper hills.
