Maspie Den Walk Map

2.86 miles (4.6 km)

Ordnance Survey Map Open Streetmap This walk explores the footpaths in Maspie Den on the old Falkland House Estate in the Lomond Hills area of Fife.
It's a popular place for a walk with views of the Maspie Burn, a series of picturesque waterfalls, woodland trails and some interesting geology to admire.
The walk starts off in the attractive village of Falkland which lies just to the east of the Den. From here you can walk past the historic Palace and head west into the Maspie Den. There's good paths along the burn with fine views of the rushing waterfalls and the surrounding Lomond Hills.
You could turn it into a longer circular walk by climbing East Lomond Hill which lies just to the south. There are some fine views over the area from this vantage point.
To continue your walking in the area head south west to visit another highlight of the area at Loch Leven. There's some fine waterside trails and glorious views at the expansive loch.
