pawel visited on 15th Dec 2019 - their rating: Cond: -1 Amb: 5 Access: 3 Tiny island covered in trees that was was a cannog or a house built on stilts over the water. There is pictish cross nearby, and hut cirles and old kinord. To see it all, park your car at Burn o'Vat Visitors Centre, grab a map and follow Little Ord Trail. On a good weather day, it is a lovely 1.5 hour walk.
