Standing Stone / Menhir

I parked just up the road from the stone at the very interesting Eco camping farm/shop and was also greeted by a couple of llamas.

The stone has good views up and down the valley.

Borland

Standing Stone / Menhir

nickbrand Oct 27, 2002

A small stone perched on a low hilltop, just off the A93 through Glenshee. About 5 miles south of Spittal of Glenshee is a small road which runs east towards Glenisla, signposted for Blacklunans. On a bend in the road about a mile in there is sufficient space to park – the stone itself can be glimpsed just on the small hilltop. Negotiate a couple of gates and it’s about a 50m walk up the hill to the top. No significant markings, but worth a look just for the views!
