Scotland's best kept secret, Krishna Eco Farm promotes a healthy, wholesome, balanced and holistic way of living. The aims of the Krishna Eco Farm include bringing people together with the purpose of practising a simpler, more natural way of life. We organise farm & indian cultural tours, environmental talks, festivals (such as Holi - festival of colours, Henna, etc), retreats and meditation events. We have volunteering opportunities throughout the year.
My recent trip to Krishnas wonderful Eco Farm in Scotland was an amazing experience, I went there with a group to live and serve for one week and had the best time. I seriously wish I could've stayed there for longer! We had great kirtans there, nice people we could help along, I especially liked the gardening, feels like you're being part of something much bigger. So go there and get an idea for yourself, you wont regret it :D

Historic live steam miniature railway set in the grounds of Strathaven Public Park. We have just celebrated 71 years of operating the railway in 2020. We have still in use the original locomotive which ran in the park for the first time on the 14th of May 1949. 'Margaret' is the locomotive in question and can be seen either on display or in use on special occasions. Weather permitting trains will be in operation from Easter to the end of September each weekend.
This fabulous gem in the heart of the delightful South Lanarkshire market town of Strathaven is run by volunteers and is one of the reasons Strathaven Park keeps winning Grren Flag Awards ! Its been operating in the park for over 70 years now and regularly you find three generations of families who are total fans and on the train together ! Miss this delightful attraction at your peril.

The cemetery opened in 1659 although legend has it that it has been a burial ground for over 900 years. Four distinct sections make up the cemetery and lairs can only be purchased at the time of burial within this cemetery. The cemetery has links with the covenanting trail. In 1820 James 'Pearly' Wilson and other radicals took up weapons and marched to Cathkin to protest at the Corn Laws that had driven up the cost of food. These Laws had caused great hardship amongst the Strathaven Weavers. He was arrested and charged and found guilty of high treason and hanged at Glasgow Green. His body was dug up and brought back to Strathaven where a monument in his memory was erected adjacent to the cemetery with the aid of public subscriptions. There are records dating back to 1875 available.

Social Enterprise operated Nature Trail, Nature Play, Gift Shop and Tearoom on the outskirts of Lanark. Suitable for all ages.
Recently visited this lovely new place with my 1.5 year old daughter and we had a great time. My daughter particularly loved the wee play park. It’s refreshingly different to standard play parks with the most beautiful rustic nature hut full of wonderful toys and things to entertain all ages (especially good when raining which is was!) and little tunnels etc to explore. The nature trail was a bit too wet / flooded the day we visited so I look forward to going back when the weather Is better. We easily passed a couple of hours between the park and lovely little cafe / gift shop. I had a nice coffee & scone and there was a great high chair for my daughters snack time plus very friendly staff there. I bought the handmade soap and love it (I have sensitive skin as well). Highly recommend for a family morning or afternoon out ????
