Overview

An undulating upland hill walk with scenic views, weather permitting. From the car park we head up Creag na Criche, following a mix of tracks and open moorland to reach the obelisk at the summit of Craig Gibbon. This is one of the hills marking the line of the Highland Boundary Fault, generally regarded as the southern boundary of the Highlands.  After admiring the views and descending the Craig, we circle back passing Loch Tullybelton and Ordie Burn as well as a couple of slate quarries.
