Overview

The walk passes through the historic hamlet of Collessie and proceeds north over Cairney Hill, then returns south on part of the Pictish Trail (a 750 km cycle route between Caithness and Edinburgh) to Monimail and the renovated 13th century Bishop's Tower. The terrain is quiet roads, tracks and open fields with the odd fence climb.
