The minister's path Tradition has it that the minister from Glen Prosen Kirk also preached in the Kirk of Glen Clova and made his way between them along this hill track across the moor. Some say he walked, some that he rode a pony and others that he used a pony and trap. Along this section he could well have used any of these methods.
