Overview

We will drive to the South Car Park of Almondell Country Park by East Calder where we will leave the cars, then walk via the Country Park and the Union Canal towpath to Winchburgh, where we will catch a bus back to Linlithgow. A volunteer will then take the drivers back to East Calder to retrieve their cars while the rest have refreshments in the West Port. Ascent minimal but some steps.

This walk was previously shown as starting from Kirknewton Station, but due to the closure of a path this is not currently practical so the walk will now start from the South Car Park of Almondell Country Park, and is therefore slightly shorter than originally shown.
