Elsick Mounth

Ancient Trackway

thelonious Feb 11, 2012

11/02/2012 – Elsick Mounth is one of the ancient trackways that cross the Mounth hills from the Dee to the Mearns. We parked on the north side at NO 8071 9447 but just as easy from the south. Lovely walk south on the track today. On the south side you can visit the Lang Stane, Campstone Hill ring cairns and Raedykes Roman Camp.
