The walk will be on mixed terrain on both established and rough paths, including  woodlands, wide open spaces, some gentle hills and reservoirs.

The starting point is at Robertson Park Car Park known as the " Carpark in the Sky" PA2 8UQ. On  a clear day there are  fantastic views of the whole of Paisley and Lower Clyde valley.
