Backmuir woods is a 45 hectare woodland cared for by The
Woodland Trust in partnership with a management group from the
local community.
The mixture of
mature and new woodland and the wide variety of trees provide a
haven for many kinds of wildlife. Jays, woodpeckers, buzzards,
ferns, fungi, roe deer and red squirrels are part of that natural
mix.
There are about 9km of trails, including 1.5km on a surfaced,
all-abilities track. The remainder being woodland trails which can
become soft and muddy after rain, so sturdy footwear is advised.
The gently sloping terrain offers views over the Tay to the south
and the Sidlaws to the north. Cache is set for Backmuir woods event
on Sunday 23rd October. Please do not log before this date.
Scottiedogz have some of
the most imaginative and fun caches we've seen - Braco lok &
lok, and Wellies Required? being two.
As a tribute to Wellies required? we've supplied them.
They may or may not be useful - you decide.
