Pannanich Woods and Craig Coillich
The climb through Pannanich woods to the viewpoint of Craig Coillich offers a steep hike with good views at the top and a winding woodland descent back to Ballater. Whilst not such a pretty walk as Craigdendarroch, the woods are home to capercaille and red squirrels, and on a clear day the excellent viewpoint makes the climb worthwhile.
