Kirrie Den
All Abilities;Easy;Town/Culture Route;Nature/Country route

The Garrie Burn flows right through the centre of the town in a deeply eroded valley.  While this has split the development of the town, it has also created very pleasant open places with its own network of paths.  The Den runs from Lochmill Road where the path to Kinnordy Loch begins and runs right through to the site of the old railway station in Marywell Gardens.  The Den can be enjoyed for its own sake or it can be included in a loop from the town centre following the vintage signposts. 

Young J.M. Barrie used to enjoy playing in and around the Den and it is not difficult to see where he got his ideas for some locations inn "Peter Pan". If you have read the book, see how many you can identify.
