Walk Description:

For people who have completed a NW Instruction Course.

Please check the forecast and dress for the weather.

This is 4½ miles low level walk in Lomond Hills Regional Park, taking in farmland and woodland with some inclines. It can be muddy. Good supportive walking footwear is important so walking shoes, sturdy trainers or walking boots are all fine.

Bring a drink and a snack if required.

** Please note - while this is a 'low-level' walk, it is up in the hills, so if it is very windy, wet or misty, we will re-locate and do an alternative walk. I will notify everyone who signs up of the weather forecast the evening before.
