Corrie Fee National Nature Reserve, Kirriemuir, UK
View on Map
Like a giant stone armchair, Corrie Fee is a wild amphitheatre of rocky landscape sculpted by the power of ice and water. The area is now a haven for the plants, birds and animals that are equipped to cope with the challenges of this harsh mountain environment. If you’re lucky, you might spot a golden eagle or peregrine falcon soaring overhead.
This National Nature Reserve was sculpted thousands of years ago by ice which left behind corries, cliffs, moraines and a meandering river. Corrie Fee’s path is popular all year round with hill walkers and the crags are well known for winter climbing.
Watch out for beautiful alpine flowers, rare mountain willows clinging to the crags, golden eagles and peregrines. Whether you want to walk along the trail to the edge of the forest to enjoy the views of this natural amphitheatre or take a full day to explore the uplands, there is plenty to explore and enjoy at Corrie Fee.
There is a visitor reception at the Angus Glens Ranger Base offering informative displays and a wide range of Cairngorms National Park leaflets, including walks in Glen Clova and Glen Doll, Glen Esk and cycling in the Angus Glens.
Public Toilets at Glen Doll Ranger Base:
May to August – 9am to 8pm
