Description
This circuit is suitable for cyclists and walkers, the first part is possible as a pleasant link from Plean to Cowie. From Plean turn off the A9 just after the motorway bridge, onto a path signed for Cowie. At the end of this path, turn left onto the B9124 for a short distance and then right onto a path also signed for Cowie. This path takes you to Station Road (which links to the outskirts of Cowie).
