Trail description

From the car park at Invermark at the head of Glen Esk, the Mounth Road track follows the river up Glen Mark past the Queen's Well, then zig-zags steeply onto moorland, where a path branches off over rocky ground to the summit trig point. At 939 m Mount Keen is the most easterly Munro, and on a clear day the view reaches the Cairngorms and Lochnagar.
