About the walk: Monikie Country Park, situated 4 miles north-west of Carnoustie, is set in 180 acres of reservoirs, woodland and parkland. Open, panoramic views of Angus, Dundee and Fife, combined with a range of habitats, supporting a myriad of woodland and wetland birds, butterflies and other interesting fauna, make the park a popular visitor attraction. The month of June is particularly good for spring and early summer flora. All routes and trails are defined as easy-going and path surfaces are consolidated. Access to all public areas and facilities are wheelchair friendly.
