We opted for a bike & hike to Mount Keen from Glen Tanar today. Having approached it from Glen Esk a few times already, Glen Tanar was a lovely alternative. Shorter drive for us too.
We cycled until the last bridge across the Water of Tanar and left the bikes by an old sheepfold. The cycle was a gradual, easy going ascent on good tracks.
The walking section is a lot steeper in places. Mostly really good paths, apart from the start.
Pleasant views from the summit in all directions. East to Clachnaben and the north sea, west towards Lochnagar and north towards Bennachie.
Of course a few people cycled the whole thing. Some really impressive skills on the many steps from the summit by 2 mountain bikers.
