As others up from the sawmill, fabulous views great way to finish a well needed 4 day holiday. A lovely part of the world and huge recommendation for the Loch Kinord Hotel in Dinnet, 20 years since last there and now even better than it was.

Parked at the old sawmill - easy trek up - but the shingle path is a killer on the ankles - great views of the Clach and Mount Keen - nice sitting at the top having a cup of tea - rain started to pour down and lots of ticks on Rocco

Parked at Finzean Mill, crossed bridge and followed signposted track to summit of Peter Hill and the pillar. Latter was surrounded by detritus of some ignorant so and sos who had left egg shells and a half eaten cheeseburger. We moved away to enjoy our lunch then returned and cleared the rubbish as best we could. Great views, weather better than forecast and we continued to pick up track down by Glasspit burn and back along the river through the wood. Listed A Finzean Mill in very poor condition but Birse Community Trust have a work party organised in Spetember to do much needed remedial work

Out and back the same route from Finzean Sawmill. Flies a nuisance.
