Devilla

Where we are

Latest forest information

We are starting felling operations in Devilla forest, by Kincardine, at the end of this week or early next week. Some core path will have to be temporarily closed and diverted round the operations sites for safety reasons. These closures will be on a rolling basis and opened as soon as it is safe to do so. The majority of the forest will be open and accessible to the public for the duration of the operations

About

Watch for red squirrels scurrying through the pine

The Scots Pine trees of Devilla are a perfect habitat for red squirrels. After trying to spot them along the Red Squirrel Trail, continue to explore the wider forest and its four lochs, which are home to dragonflies and otters.

Red Squirrel Trail

Watch for squirrels scurrying through the lodgepole pine on this short trail round Bordie Loch and past the legendary Standard Stone.

Firm gravel surface throughout with some uneven sections. Generally flat with some short fairly steep slopes. One wide section of boardwalk.

1 ½ miles / 2.4 km

More information

The trail loops around a beautiful woodland loch, where you’ll find shaded picnic tables and well-placed benches. If you don’t spot the real thing along the way, look out for ‘squirrel shadows’ hidden in the trees that bring their shape and darting movements to life.
