Overview

A walk to welcome lengthening days. Please bring a hand/head torch and packed breakfast. As it will be dark, we'll take the straightforward route to Cockleroy via Preston Road, Hillhouse Wood and Beecraigs, arriving on the summit in time for the sunrise at 08:44. We will then continue to the Korean War Memorial and Witch Craig before making our way back through Beecraigs to Linlithgow. The walk will end at Linlithgow Sports Club where we hope you'll join us for some light refreshments. An email with further information will be sent out nearer the time as we will need to know numbers for lunch.
