Participants - Neil and Ben
Where - Bin of Cullen, 320m/1,051', Sub-2,000' Marilyn, Map 29, NJ 480643
Various minor roads through some nice countryside took me to the start of my second walk of the day- the Bin of Cullen. The harvest was in full swing and it looked like being a bumper crop.....
The start point for this one was near to a farm called Braidbog where there was some parking at the entrance to the track through the forest. It was mixed woodland and very pleasant to walk through as the leaves and ferns were starting to turn into their autumn colours.....
The track was marked on the map and although it changed direction a few times there was no problem. Higher up there was a short cut but it was a bit bouldery so I just stuck to the main track. The top of the hill was above the trees and as I had expected it was a very fine viewpoint, the best of the trip so far. This is looking south back to Knock Hill.....
and this is a slightly zoomed shot of that first hill of the day.....
There was a view indicator erected by the Rotary Club of Buckie to mark the Millennium; this is it with the town of Buckie in the background.....
and this is looking down on the town of Cullen....
and that is where we went after leaving the hill- to find a seat on the seafront and to do a bit of sun bathing!
