Overview

This is an easier alternative to Rose and Stuart's walk. Both walks are essentially the same however this will avoid the climb over Callander Crags and will be carried out at a slower pace for the benefit of those of us with dodgy knees. The walk includes cycleways, paths, quiet roads and Forestry Commission roads. It is muddy in places and poles and gaiters are recommended.
