A scenic view of Mabie

The best times to visit Mabie Forest are summer for the best weather conditions and long daylight hours, and autumn for the sight of the forest ablaze in rich reds and oranges. Winter is also a good time to visit, but be sure to take care and dress in warm, weatherproof gear. Mabie Forest is located just 20 minutes south of Dumfries in Scotland.
