The Braes SafariLeaving the public road at Chapelton we gain the open moor of the Braes after fording the Blythe Burn. This area is home to both Red Grouse and the rare Black Grouse. Snipe also live here and Roe Deer are frequently seen browsing amongst the heather.
Continuing to the Kymah Burn we stop to make a short excursion on foot. Salmon spawn in these waters in late autumn and early winter whilst Otter can sometimes be seen hunting for them.
Turning west we cross the lower slopes of the Ladder Hills - a favourite haunt of Mountain Hare and Raven - before regaining the public road at Chapeltown in the Braes of Glenlivet.
Come and experience highland wildlife in its natural habitat.
Red Deer, Roe Deer, Red Grouse, Brown Hare, Buzzard and Kestrel are all frequently seen on the Braes Safari as well as several other more common species.
Golden Eagle, Hen Harrier, Mountain Hare, Black Grouse, Raven, Dipper, Meadow Pipit, Heron and Snipe are also spotted from time to time. |
