The Wee County
Cost: £125
Pickup: Glasgow or Edinburgh or Stirling

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’
