Glen Prosen, the most westerly of the Angus Glens, has a more pastoral feel than Glen Clova, and the views from the north side road are beautiful. The Glen is much more intimate than the great Glens of Esk and Isla, and much of Glen Prosen is only accessible by foot.
Glen Prosen is a picturesque hamlet of a few scattered houses spread along the east side of the glen from Glen Prosen Church.
The road up the east side of the glen is private, leading to Balnaboth, and is guarded by a gatehouse.Another track, passable only on foot, passes Glen Prosen Church and follows the "Minister's Road" - this being the four miles to Glen Clova. It was so named because the Minister used to walk it twice each Sunday, before and after services.
The Glen Prosen Estate is run by Strathmore Estates, the owners of Glamis Castle.
