Forth & Clyde Canal

This was the first canal built in Scotland, which stretches 35 miles from the village of Bowling on the River Clyde to the town of Grangemouth on the River Forth.

Reviewed By tomalli68 - Falkirk, United Kingdom

Great to take to the canal for a walk or cycle. Canals run between glasgow and edinbugh, change over canals at the falkirk wheel. Lovely and peaceful away from all traffic. Also see some lovely canal animals/birds. Love taking to the canals.

Galloway Red Kite Trail

Reviewed By FMW13 - Irvine, United Kingdom

Haven’t been to the feeding station as the Kites are easily seen locally. But if you pay, you’ll see many dozens from their one viewpoint. Drive or cycle from Ringford (off A75) to Laurieston and you’re pretty much guaranteed to see plenty of Red Kites. The fields had been recently ploughed & dozens of birds were feeding on the bare soil or wheeling overhead very close by. It’s a quiet road with places to stop, and signed the “Red Kite Trail”. Or walk up the hill to the Red Kite view point by taking the path directly opposite the Loch Ken Caravan Park (public car park just off the A713). Better still, stay on the campsite and hear the birds right overhead as you sit outside. Or go to Threave Castle near Castle Douglas at the right time of year (say, April to early August) to see Kites - but also Osprey.

Muiravonside Country Park

Reviewed By JoanScotland - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

I have been visiting Muiravonside Country Park for years - at least since 2002 - taking the grand-children to visit the excellently run far and to the play area. But really the best thing is just to get them out into the open air and running around. It has improved out of all recognition during these years and the farm is spotless with excellent informatioin boards, there are walkways around the fields so that you can get closer to the animals, there is an orchard area and allottment so that they can learn where their food comes from. The cafe is well run and the food we had yesterday was absolutely fresh and home-made - and cheap! Couldln't have been more impressed. It's understandable that they can't keep the cafe open for long hours - it's a country park after all and visitor numbers could be greater. The thing is that the park is free of charge and it's a very valuable asset in the area.
