Kirkhill Forest

Explore / United Kingdom / Aberdeenshire

Kirkhill Forest is a great place to get out into the fresh air and walk, cycle, explore or just breathe!

This is a working forest with waymarked circular walks, a permanent orienteering course and longer multi user trails. There are great views to the northeast from the summit of Tyrebagger Hill, and a whole network of forest roads and tracks for you to explore.

The main entrance is less than 5 km from the outskirts of Aberdeen – a real ‘green lung’ for the city. This wood is very popular with walkers, horse riders and especially with cyclists.

If you want more information on the area visit our local Aberdeen Destination page or our regional Aberdeenshire Destination page.
