Descrizione
Convenient parking and access provided to the hill tops by gravel paths or even a ski lift (also in summer). It is possible to visit 3 Munroes from this area. Around the parking area Rondine and Balestruccio are nesting.
The higher area is mostly heather and bracken, and stony scree at the tops. Pernice bianca nordica, Pernice bianca, Piviere tortolino are hidden amongst the vegetation. Flocks of Pispola are watched by Poiana, Nibbio reale, Corvo imperiale and Gheppio. Piviere dorato and Piovanello pancianera can be found in May and June.
The Old Military Road leading here has multiple lay-bys in which it is worth stopping for a quick scan of the hills with a scope.
Dettagli
Accesso
Glen Shee is a long Highland valley running through eastern Scotland, centred on the A93 between Blairgowrie (Perthshire) and Braemar (Aberdeenshire). Its upper end hosts the Glenshee Ski Centre, located above the Cairnwell Pass at the head of the glen. Best accessed by car (click P on the map for directions), but access by bus is also possible.
Plan at least half a day to explore and hike - there is little shelter so on hot days, best enjoyed in the morning and bring plenty of water. The route shown on the map is about 6 km one way.
