Keir Hills

Grid reference

First surveyed in 1990 resurveyed and map extended in 1998. Partially updated 2013.

Moorland makes up most of the Keir Hills map but there are some patches of woods as well. The contour details make for some challenging orienteering as there are a number of parallel features. This is a large area and quite fast pace can be maintained by people fit enough to keep going on the hills. There are very few line features on the map other than walls and some of these are tall ones so careful note is needed of the crossing points. The expanded map was first used for the 1999 Scottish Championships.
