The walk - An undulating circular walk on well prepared paths and good views, skirting the edge of the Duke of Hamilton's Estate taking in the Hunting lodge, Cadzow Castle and Cadzow ancient oaks. A mixture of open country and forested areas with only three inclines of note, two of which can be avoided upon request. A couple of short sections where there is a chance of notable mud depending on the weather in the days before. The walk takes us from the station up through the park heading upstream on one side of the Avon Gorge and returning via the other side.
Free parking at Chatelherault Railway station but it does not have toilets at the station. Toilets are available at the Country Park approx. 600m after the start of the walk.
