Anybody on the hunt for a picturesque autumn hike in Scotland need look no further than one spectacular forest that has previously been named the country's 'best autumn woodland walk'.
If you are looking for somewhere in Scotland to soak up the views this September and October, the "best autumn walk" in the country is a safe bet.
Over the coming weeks, the country will turn dazzling shades of orange and gold as the leaves change colour. With less tourists to contend with than summer, it is the perfect time for a picturesque forest walk. While The Hermitage makes for a great day out no matter what time of the year, it is without a doubt at its prettiest during the autumn. The protected site, owned by the National Trust for Scotland, is perhaps best known for its giant Douglas firs that are among the tallest in the UK and give the walk a lovely pine smell.
Unsurprisingly, The Hermitage has been a favourite spot of many artists and historic figures over the years. Some of the famous faces who were reportedly fans of the walk include Queen Victoria, Joseph Mallord William Turner, and William Wordsworth.
