Start : Glen Doll Ranger Base car park. Grid ref. NO 28344 76136
(S/E) Starting from the Glen Doll Ranger Base car park, head towards the base and follow the track to the left of the building to reach the start of Jock’s Road, just beyond Glendoll Farm and Blair House. Note the way-marker indicating different coloured routes – for this one follow the blue marker posts.
(1) Continue along this track for approx 1.3km, with the White Water on your left. You will reach a fork in the route. Take the minor path to the right (West), signposted “Jock’s Road Braemar 14mls”.
For the next 2.5km enjoy a pleasant trail through the forest with the fast-flowing White Water by your left-hand side all the way.
(2) As you emerge from the trees, turn left (South) off of Jock’s Road, onto a narrow trail running down the treeline towards the burn where there is a large wooden footbridge.
(3) Cross over the footbridge and turn left (South East) to follow a good forestry trail back down the glen.
(4) After 2km you will cross a boardwalk-style footbridge taking you across the Fee Burn, a tributary to the White Water.
(5) Turn left after crossing. 400m along the trail there is a larger footbridge to your left. You have the choice to either cross this (it will lead you back to your earlier point at the “Jock’s Road Braemar 14mls” fork (1)) or you can keep right (ie, don't cross the bridge) to continue 1.3km further downstream to the next bridge (6) which is hard surfaced with wire/metal railings.
Whichever bridge you choose, turn right (East) after crossing it and retrace your steps back to Glen Doll Ranger Base car park (S/E)
