Although there may be many cars in the car park, the wonderful thing about Blairadam Woods is that five minutes into your walk you feel like you are the only one there.

Hiking

Blairadam Forest is managed by Forestry and Land Scotland. It's a mixed woodland forest planted mainly by William Adam as an investment in wood and a landscaped estate in the 1700's. Coal mining happened extensively underground here and you'll find evidence of this while walking the various trails.
There are three waymarked walking trails in the woods:
The blue Keltyhill Glen Trail is just a km long and follows the burn.
The red Glen Trail is 2.8km long.
The yellow Blairenbathie Mine Trail is 4km long.
