Hacking Details
|
We hack out on the old drove roads around the small town of Kirriemuir. 1 hour and 1.5 hours hack are most common. But we can also do anything from 2 hours to a whole day (including a stop off for a pub lunch. The surrounding countryside affords many excellent views, Kirriemuir being the gateway to the Angus Glens.
