The Cnoc Trail is a scenic hiking route that takes you through the rugged and picturesque landscapes of the Scottish Highlands. The trail begins in the village of Braemar and winds its way through ancient forests, alongside sparkling streams, and over rolling hills. As you climb higher, the scenery becomes increasingly dramatic, with towering mountains and breathtaking vistas unfolding around every bend. The trail eventually reaches the summit of Cnoc Mor, where on a clear day, you can see for miles in every direction, taking in the stunning beauty of the Cairngorms National Park.
We took the the path to the left when you get to a fork at the beginning of walk. Views weren't the best because of the mist. If you want a quick pic of the bridge take a right and then double back and go to the top. The views are stunning from there
Great wee hill for family walk with views back over the Skye bridge
Great short walk. Beautiful view of the Skye Bridge.
There are two trails, a red and a green, the green going straight up the hill while the red wanders round before going up. The trees have all been cut down so there's not much to recommend the red trail. Head straight up the green route for good views at the top of the hill.
A really nice walk with lots of different options depending on how far you want to walk. The dog loves it!
All the trees around the trails have been harvested so there are only distant views now. Give it a few years to regrow a forest.
