From the car park, cross the road and follow the lane to your right for a short distance. Through native broadleaves then tall conifers the narrow path follows the Tigh Ness Burn. As the path climbs into Strathyre Forest there are fine views of Beinn an t-Sidhein, Benvane and the Braes of Balquhidder. The route crosses the burn on a wooden bridge before starting its descent through the forest and back to the car park.

From the car park the path leads across the River Balvaig before heading into Strathyre Forest. The path surface is generally firm but very steep in places and some sections may have loose surfaces material. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the woodland as you climb steadily through the forest to the open hill. Leaving the forest behind the path climbs on and as you approach the summit the views are superb. Among the numerous peaks are Ben Vane, Ben Ledi, Ben Vorlich and STuc a'Croin. Loch Lubnaig and the viall of Strathyre lie far below, with Loch Earn and Lochearnhead to the North East.

Important Message from the Forestry Commission:
Many of the Forestry Commission Scotland's trails and forest roads are suitable for walkers, cyclists and horse riders. Please show consideration and courtesy to everyone you meet. Some trails and paths are less suited to cyclists and horse riders because of the gradients and surfaces. Please behave responsibily in helping us to maintain these routes.

Please remember also that forests are working landscapes and that forestry vehicles also use these roads.
