Meall Donn

Summary:  This is a great up and back route which gives you fantastic views of Loch Mhor and beyond. The first part of the route is on road before you follow a grassy track, a hill track and then if you wish through heather to a trig point. Fairly flat to begin, the route then starts to climb with the last part being moderately challenging.

Distance & Grade: 10.6km. Moderate.

Description: Park at Errogie Church and follow the road towards Torness. Turn right at the junction marked Farraline Estate and walk along the road beside Loch Mhor, past Farraline House until you reach the farm. Walk through the farmyard and you will see a grassy track on your right. Follow this track until you reach a clump of trees on the right with a gate on your left. Go through the gate heading for the forest and follow the track which turns left and onto the hillside. This path leads up the hillside, bending right then left to finally peter out around the 450m contour. From here, head left up the hill through the bracken and heather to reach the summit which, on a good day, gives a spectacular view to the North and East.
