Overview

With a bit of imagination, this walk is almost a figure of 8, albeit a slightly wonky one! We will climb Seamab Hill and continue over Commonedge Hill before dropping down to Glenquey Reservoir. We will then climb Innerdownie Hill, descend north east towards Glen Devon and back towards the reservoir. We will briefly join our outward route, then continue along the glen back to the start. We will be on an mixture of grassy/muddy hill paths and forest tracks with a bit of bog thrown in for good measure.
