There are shorter alternatives, but turn right here to get to Trottick, travelling alongside the Dighty Burn.

A steep drop down to cross the burn then up again.

Trottick

Easy to miss the turn - look for the national speed limit sign. Then prepare for a mile of steep grind up the hill

Left at the junction, not all the hill is done yet but it is now much gentler

Tealing

For the energetic, a diversion to cross straight over will take you up to Coldstream for some extra climbing. Return the same way.

Balmullo

A long climb on the edge of the Sidlaws. Quite often in cloud.

Kirkton of Auchterhouse

For the energetic, a right turn here gives a mile climb to the Sanatorium. Retrace to here to continue.

Fast descent with security lights from the farm dazzling.

Dronley

Twisting descent to turn left

The final obstacle is the climb to Templeton Woods.

The climb eases at teh car park, then it is a chance to catch your breath before joining the main road back to Dundee
