Walking in the Angus Glens by James Carron

Walking in the Angus Glens by James Carron

A guidebook to 30 walks in five beautiful glens located south of the Cairngorms National Park in north-east Scotland. The routes described comprise of 26 circular walks arranged by glen - Isla, Prosen, Clova, Lethnot and Esk - and a final, sixth section describing 4 linear walks along the historic Mounth Roads that cross between the glens. The detailed routes climb Munros including Mount Keen and give lesser-known ascents such as Badandun Hill. From the forested Glen Doll to the rugged bowl of Loch Wharral and the remote reaches of Glen Lethnot, the Angus Glens offer a wide range of walking. Accessible from Dundee and the nearby Angus towns of Brechin and Forfar, the combination of Glens makes a rich, remote landscape. Walks range from 6 to 25km in length, illustrated with OS 1:50,000 mapping and colour photographs. A wealth of background history, geography and wildlife information are included. Contact details are also given for each area so that readers can check on the access situation before they set out.

Based in Dundee, James Carron holds an enduring love for the Angus Glens. He also makes regular forays overseas and adores hiking in Eastern Europe. A freelance writer specialising in outdoor pursuits, he has written several walking guidebooks and is a regular contributor to outdoor magazines.
