We are the Balerno Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Margaret G.
An interesting and varied circular walk through Edinburgh. Our route connects urban hills, woods, ponds and streams of the south west of the city, including Craiglockhart Pond, Easter Craiglockhart Hill and Hermitage of Braid, Buckstone Snab, Mortonhall Golf Course & Walled Garden, Liberton Tower, Blackford Community Woodland, Blackford Hill, Midmar and return to Craiglockhart.
If you would like to join us, please contact the Walk Leader to book a place in advance, noting that places may be limited. Please advise the walk leader of any issue that may affect your ability to complete the walk; if you intend to travel independently to the start of the walk, and/or if you are willing to drive/car share from the meeting point.
Also, if you have one, please remember to bring your ICE (In Case of Emergency) card with you. Or a note of your proposed emergency contact name and number will be required in case of emergency.
As conditions underfoot can vary, stout walking shoes/ boots, gaiters and walking poles, if you use them, are recommended.
Please note that, unfortunately, we don’t accommodate dogs on our walks. Guide Dogs are welcome.
