Balblair car park
 

Car park access to a lovely mixed conifer forest with two walks tracking through an area of straight stemmed mature spruce, larch and pine. The shorter loop reaches a small recently restored pond, which is a haven for insect and bug life. The longer walk offers the finest views towards the Carbisdale Castle and down the Firth to Struie Hill.
