Overview

We will be getting the bus from Kirkintilloch to Clachan of Campsie and then walking back to Kirkintilloch.

Robert has kindly agreed to lead a lower-level version of this walk, along the Thomas Muir/John Muir path on the old railway line, for those that prefer their walks a bit less hilly.

 

Please see the associated walk for details of the bus we will be taking
