Overview

Surround yourself with nature on this leisurely walk around Beecraigs Country Park. There are many signs of spring to see/hear from wildflowers, bird song & fields full of new-born lambs. Will we be lucky to spot a deer or some bats? 

If the weather is kind we will see lots of great views throughout the walk of the surrounding hills & will enjoy a walk around the loch before returning to the start point.

Paths are mainly surfaced however a few are unsurfaced & may be muddy or wet so walking boots are recommended. We will not be climbing any hills however the paths are undulating & there is one flight of steps by the loch so bring a walking pole if needed.
