Starting at the car park on Schoolwell Steet across from Stevenston Library, this walk will go to Kerelaw Castle, past the old water works and towards Lochcraigs Solar Farm. We pass Ashgrove Loch , nip across Ardeer Golf Course and through fields of long grass to Diddup Farm. Then it is back to Stevenston via on rough tracks, tarmac. and a bit of mud.
There are three things to climb: a gate, a fence and a rickety barrier made of old wood and Heras fencing. Note too, the long grass: there's about 700 meters of this and gaiters will be useful if it has been wet.
Another of Iain's very popular summer evening walks. This is a lovely, welcoming group for new and occasional walkers who are looking for something short, easy to join and not too strenuous. This particular walk is, at 5.2 miles, a little longer than the others in this series have been.
This walk replaces the walk to Irvine Bar previously scheduled for 24th July.
