To avoid the Hoolies I went up Dollar Glen towards the imposing Castle Campbell. Some nice trail sweets on the way, frozen Birch sap sweets.
The path weaves it’s way along through old growth Deciduous forest and along the gorge and over wooden bridges, with continued interest.
Eventually you pop out across from the Castle.
Some walkers passed me, coming down early out of the wind, they had been snow shoeing – or trying to – up on Earl’s Seat Hill.
Saw lots of Ransoms on areas out of the wind. The common name of these is Wild Garlic. In May and June, the smell of Garlic is pungent when walking through them.
