Dumyat - Colsnaur Circular from Menstrie

Looking at the maps, settled on a circular starting in Menstrie and then heading up the back side of Dumyat before heading north and picking up the Jerrah Woods path and then swinging round to Colsnaur and back to Menstrie. It was a lovely day and again, and picking up the path from the village cent...

Glen Sherup to Ben Cleugh Circular

With a cracking looking weather forecast and the opportunity of a good few hours out, it was time to get a route planned. Needed to be local and was keen to do a bit of something new so decided on heading over to Glendevon. Looking at the map thought a clockwise route from the Glen Sherup car park w...

Blairdenon from Sherrifmuir

With visibility not going to be great due to low cloud, it wasn’t going to be an outing with epic views today, but as always good to get out for a few hours. We decided to head over to Sherrifmuir and my son and I had a laugh when the newsreader on the car radio mentioned that the cloud was going to...

Ben Chonzie

Nice wee day out on this hill with my sons BB company with 18 youngsters ranging from P7 to S4. Set off in the morning from Falkirk and the fog was well and truly down - thinking might be one of those days without views. Making our way towards Comrie we soon left the Forth Valley behind and thankful...

Mayar & Dreish

Having booked the September weekend away at a site in Forfar there was really only one walk we were going to do. Looking at the distance I was thinking it might be a bit of a stretch for my youngest, but having a look at the route/profile though we would go for it and see how it went, with the optio...

King's Seat Loop

With only a Saturday afternoon to spare this weekend due to various Dad's Taxi duties it was going to be something local squeezed in. Was keen to do a loop rather than an out and back and eventually decided to head over to Dollar Glen to tackle a clockwise route taking in King's Seat, Andrew Gannel ...

Tarmachan in the Clag

Stopped off near Aberfeldy for a couple of nights and thought we'd catch a hill whilst we were there. Plans were almost scuppered by daughter losing her Airpods in the car, but after removing back seat (!$£%!) and finding them we were ready to set off albeit a lot later than expected. As it was head...

Carn Aosda and Cairnwell

Having planned a long weekend near Perth was having a look at some easy options for a family walk that would suit our 10 year old daughter......who's never overly keen, but we keep trying! So thought was head up to Glenshee taking advantage of the high start and doing Carn Aosda, The Cairnwell and t...

King's Seat Hill

Looking over to the Ochils from Falkirk, could see the tops were still in cloud so thought an ideal chance to gwt over and get a bit of navigating practice in. So we decided to head over to Dolllar and head up King’s Seat with the option of potentially taking in Tarmangie/Whitewisp or possibly back ...

Dumyat Loop from Blairlogie

After dropping son off in Stirling for air cadets I had 2 1/2 hours to spare before picking him up again. It was a lovely evening and so I decided to head over to Blairlogie and up Dumyat. A quick look at the map and I decided on an anti clockwise route. Parked in the car park in the village and hea...

Meall Corranaich & Meall a' Choire Leith Loop

Being newbies my son and I were keen to try and do a walk that got us a couple of summits and wasn’t too arduous – and at the same time, somewhere within easy reach of Falkirk and where we had a chance of getting parked given the fabulous weather! Flicking through the Cicerone guide we decided on he...

Bengengie from Alva Glen

Started off at the Alva Glen Car Park and then up through the woods following the footpath alongside the burn. After crossing a few bridges and as the woods start to clear footpath starts to zig zag and gain a bit of height along the side of the glen making for some very pleasant views. You hit a fe...

Ben More (Mull)

As we were visiting for a week, we decided to fit in a walk up Ben More. Looking at it and due to the fact we had our 10 year old daughter with us we decided that the straight up and back route from Dhiseig would be the best option. So we parked up at the grass verge car park to look up and see the ...
