The Wee County

Cost: £125

Pickup: Glasgow or Edinburgh or Stirling

Please bring a packed lunch.

Scotland's smallest county is bypassed by major routes so this is a ‘Tour & Trek’ to discover fine scenery and castles away from the prime tourist routes.

Itinerary for Clackmannanshire the Wee County - Tour and Walk

  • Pickup from either Edinburgh, Glasgow or Stirling.

  • Drive to Dollar and walk up a wooded glen and through a gorge to a castle. Entry optional and admission charge not included in the price.

  • Walk on to view some waterfalls and have a picnic in the woods if the weather is poor, or up on the hills above. Option to reach the summit of King’s Seat at 648 metres.

  • Walk down to Dollar via another scenic route.

  • Lots of opportunities to photograph the picturesque Dollar town with its avenue of cherry trees ribboning the stream through the centre. 

  • Explore another of Clackmannanshire’s glens: Tillicoultry, Alva, Menstrie. These are gorge like and surprisingly steep and rugged in parts, giving access to the hill ridges beyond. These will definitely be a highlight of the day.

  • The day includes a visit to the extremely picturesque abbey and Bishop's palace town of Culross with its steep and quaint streets beside the Firth of Forth. Great for photographers and fans of ‘Outlander’

  • Return to base
