Moncreiffe Hill

Location

Nearest town: Perth

Terrain description

A long east-west hill with a variety of tree cover, much of it managed by the Woodland Trust. Moncrieffe Hill has steep southern flanks with crags very visible from the M90 motorway, and just a few ways down, but more gentle northern slopes which are a mix of open and wooded land offering good orienteering with an adequate path network. There are two iron-age hill forts in the area.

Moncreiffe Hill has hosted a full colour coded event and the Scottish round of the Compass Sport Trophy.
