Starting with a walk through East Calder passing a medieval gravestone where you would least expect to see one, followed by a woodland & riverside walk through Almondell & Calderwood Country Park.
We will pass under the dramatic viaduct before walking through the former Almondell Estate steeped in history & natural beauty & crossing several other notable bridges spanning the River Almond on our return to the start point.
The Country Park is a wildlife haven with roe deer, fox, heron, otters, woodpeckers & many more animals making their home here. Who knows what we might be lucky enough to spot.
The walk is along a mixture of paved, gravel & grass paths. Some of these paths may be muddy after rain. Some of the path is unlit so please bring your head/hand torch just in case you need some extra light.
