PARKING: There are about 6 car spaces in front of the woodland reserved for elders, those with mobility difficulties and parents with children. Please try to arrive a bit earlier and park at Cockburnhill Road, just after Pirnie Ha’ house. The woodland is only 3 minutes walking as you turn right from there.

From there, proceed to enter Cockburnhill Road and walk for approximately 15 minutes until you reach a V junction, where you will need to turn right and walk for another 2 minutes. Upon arriving at the gate, there are 7 small bridges to cross before reaching the Hut, which is situated at the end of the woodland. Along the way, you will pass by the Yurt and the composting toilet.
