Glens, cliffs and a city
Angus & Dundee
The Angus glens on one side, red sandstone cliffs and Lunan Bay on the other, and Dundee with the V&A in the middle.
Getting there
Ninety minutes from Edinburgh, two hours from Glasgow, with trains along the coast to Dundee, Arbroath and Montrose.
What to know
- The east coast is drier than the west. If a forecast has written off the Highlands, this often still works.
- Glen Clova, Glen Esk and Glen Isla put you in proper hill country within forty minutes of the coast.
- Arbroath smokies are still smoked in the harbour sheds; Montrose Basin is a tidal bird reserve.
