Bridge and trees

IN DETAIL

A walk in the area of the Allan Water which may be near 5 miles in length. If the week beforehand is wet some paths will be muddy and slippery, and often undulating. The habitats suit most interests with typical spring flora and fauna.

Train from Waverley departs 9:23 arrives 10:19 at Bridge of Allan Station.

There is a fish and chip shop serving from midday until about 8.30pm. Also, other places to eat and drink.

Stirling University Choir will be singing Handel Messiah from 7-9pm. Several trains return to Edinburgh after 9pm.

Check advice page for field trip guidelines. Consider carrying a stick/trekking pole to help negotiating some rough ground or when leaving a path.
