Deuchny and Murrayshall

Location

Nearest town: Perth

Terrain description

Deuchny is a Forestry Commission plantation, east of Kinnoull Hill, with some interesting contour detail and a complex path network, and Murrayshall Hill is a mix of rough open grassland and pockets of natural woodland, with great views to the north and south.

Deuchny and Murrayshall can be combined with Kinnoull Hill to provide a larger area for orienteering, as was used for Day 2 of the Scottish 6 Days in 2009.
