Mysterious Meander
This was my first visit to the Wellhill Forestry walk at Culbin which I discovered by chance when I saw that the venue requested an EG review.
I know how difficult it is to make rural locations accessible so I really appreciate all that has been done by Scottish Forestry to make it as accessible as it is. It’s a beautiful, peaceful network of forestry paths through Culbin Forest, the track is also fairly wide so there’s plenty of room to social distance most of the way with a few steeper slopes and a few narrow winding turns occasionally.
I completed the first half of the loop leading to the viewpoint 99 and then went back the same way so I can’t comment on the rest of the path’s accessibility although the venue itself seemed to think that I would be able to access the whole loop and judging by the first half, I'm sure that would be right; I just didn't have enough time to take the chance that day.
It was also amazing to be able to access the viewpoint even although it was not possible for wheelchairs and powerchairs to get right to the top, it was still a great view out over the trees and I loved being up so high.
