An easy walk through delightful Lael Forest with its giant trees and then into Inverbroom Estate on a peaceful farm track with lovely views into the mountains. We will return on the same track, enjoying views over the valley and towards the head of Loch Broom, before we reach Lael Forest again where we take the highest path back to the parking area. Along the way learn about several clearances happening nearby, the adventurous Victorian seed hunters and one of the oldest trees in the world.
