Overview

This is a moderate circular walk above Callander with great views of the Trossachs landscape and distant peaks. There will be some ascents and descents on hill paths, forest tracks and a small section of minor road. We cross the river twice, the second time will be at Bracklinn Falls which can be quite spectacular when in full spate. 

Paths can be muddy after rain, sturdy footwear and poles recommended.

If you wish to join the walk please TEXT the Walk leader - 07397 562809 - giving your name and contact details in case of any changes due to inclement weather. 

As we encourage car sharing, volunteer drivers are always needed, please indicate if you are able to offer a lift. Fuel costs are shared.

Please note - parking will be at the Callander Crags car park.
