Overview

A circular walk around Glen Sherup, taking in the tops of Innerdownie, Whitewisp hill and Tarmangie. On a clear day, we will have excellent views over the Ochils and beyond.

This is a strenuous walk over open hills. The walk starts on good tracks but is mainly on grassy paths. Once on the hill there is little shelter so be prepared for all conditions.
