Overview

Easy flat walking and would be suitable for C+ walkers to try a slightly longer distance. 
From Falkirk stadium car park ( park near to the path towards the toucan crossing over the A904), we enter into the Helix park. On good paths, we head west on the south side of the river Carron, then cross to the north side, heading east. Paths and tracks on the flatlands east of Skinflats will take us to Brackenlees Road. We will return by re-crossing the river Carron towards the Helix and the cars. There may be some muddy sections in the flatlands.
