Ascent
 

Keeping our eyes open for everything from carnivorous sundew plants to golden eagles, we will explore not only the landscape but the history of this rich environment that has seen military plane crashes and cameos in literature.

The area is of extremely high conservation value and we will be accompanied by a wildlife expert from the Biosphere.

We will progress along the Millburn Path, around onto the north west aspect of Cairnsmore of fleet where we will visit Billy Marshalls cave and then ascend to the summit via Eastmans cairn.
