Overview

Join Glasgow Young Walkers on a Good Friday stroll around Mugdock and Craigmaddie Reservoirs. We will meet at Milngavie station and walk to the Reservoirs uphill through Milngavie. Then we will loop Mugdock Reservoir passing the Reservoir Gauge Basin. Then we will circle Craigmaddie Reservoir passing the Memory Tree and the Measuring Pond. Please note that while the route through Milngavie is uphill the path around the reservoirs is fairly flat. Then we will head back downhill into Milngavie and get coffee and/or lunch. Toilets available at Milngavie train station and in cafes in Milngavie
