Overview

A 7.5 mile funny shaped walk.  We start in Linlithgow with some town walking up to Beecraigs Country Park.  From the entrance of the park, we begin a figure of eight with the crossing point being the Visitor Centre (so two options for toilet stops en route).  We then return to Linlithgow, partly the same way and ending along the canal..

Refreshments options in in Linlithgow at the end of the walk.

If approaching from the west, drive on the road through Linlithgow. Just before the Castle, there is a signpost stating Police and Weekend Parking. Turn right here and follow the u-shaped road though the car park.
