Exciting activities for every hen weekend

A hen weekend in Scotland wouldn’t be complete without some fun and adventure and Glen Clova has plenty to offer. For those looking to unwind, why not host a yoga or pilates class right here in the stunning grounds? It’s a great way to start the day feeling refreshed and centred. For those feeling more creative, why not host an arts or crafts class during your hen weekend?

For the outdoorsy types, you can hike directly from your lodge. Why not explore the beautiful trails that lead to stunning spots like Loch Brandy. Wild swimming at the top of the hill is an exhilarating way to connect with nature. If you’re after a bit more excitement, clay pigeon shooting is a fantastic option. This adrenaline-filled activity is perfect for bringing out a bit of friendly competition among your friends.
