We decided to go to the Clyde Falls, via New Lanark. There are lots of interests @ New Lanark Village, for those with Historical Inerests. We found it to be easy, relaxing and great views. Did not see any wild life. It is Steep in places. Plenty of view posts, if you need to rest. there are seats along the walk. Parents must keep eye on their children. Dog friendly. We took plenty of Photographs. The views were amazing. We have done the Loch Tay walk via Killing, The Queen Elizabeth Forests. Loch Ard, ALong with small walks round Loch Lomond. Also around Wallace's Monument ( Steep).Looking forward to alot more walks. Planning a new one this w/end

Great photo velvet-rose.
I am from that area originally so I have done this walk many times, and recommend it to others. You can see a pair of nesting peregrines there. You are best to visit in the evenings if you want to see other wildlife though, badgers and bats
