We are the Inverness Young Walkers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Join us for a spoooky Hallowe'en walk around Tomnahurich Cemetery and up the hill to look out over Inverness, both north and south. We'll then finish off with a 4-km loop of Caledonian Canal, heading down the east side of the canal towards the locks, then cross over and walk back up past Caley Marina as far as Tomnahurich Swing Bridge, and back to the start point. A torch is essential for this one, as there is no lighting in the cemetery or along the canal.
Please sign up by contacting the walk leader by 7pm the day before.
All either stony or tarmacked paths, but there can be some muddy spots in the cemetery.
Please make sure to bring:
Walking Shoes/ Boots
Waterproofs
Extra Layers (inc. hat & gloves)
Head/ Handheld Torch
We will meet at the entrance to Tomnahurich Cemetery on Glenurquhart Road (just across the road from the Ballifeary Road junction). It's near the Cemetery Gates bus stop. The numbers 2, 17 and 917 leave from either Academy St or the bus station and stop at the cemetery gates.
