Welcome to Carnoustie Path Network
Carnoustie is on the south coast of Angus, near the mouth of the Tay estuary. It was founded in the late 1700’s and grew
quickly as a weaving town. Carnoustie became popular as a seaside tourist resort in Victorian times after the railway
arrived. Formal golf courses were developed, and Carnoustie remains an important golfing destination to this day.
Starting in the town centre, this walk follows Terrace
Road which is elevated over the rooftops of Dundee
Street. You can take a short walk to the woods around
Pitskelly or a longer trip to Barry Mill. The mill is looked
after by the National Trust for Scotland and it is the last
working water mill in Angus. The mill and grounds are
well worth a visit.
