Wick River
Wick River
A bird watchers haven, the River Wick is tidal for the first part of this walk and then lined with a diverse habitat. The final section of this mainly linear walk goes over rough farmland to visit a stone monument to the Battle of Altimarlach when in 1680 the Campbells won the Earldom of Caithness from the Sinclairs.
