Overview

A leisurely reasonably flat circular walk along canal tracks, riverside paths, short sections of road, woodland and open country tracks and some short inclines. The route follows a limited distance on both sides of the Forth and Clyde Canal then through Tintock Woods to the Badenoch to Braes o Yetts Farm footpath. From there we descend to Waterside Village and follow the Luggie River back to Kirkintilloch via the Luggie Park walkway.
