    Hiking

    The queel burn is an interesting geological feature surrounded by an esker. In the summer months the small lochan often dries up, and occurrence becoming more and more common with the warmer weather here.

    In the height of summer this can completely dry up. There’s a boardwalk across the pond to get some better views.
