The Whangie- a gem of a short walk!
Route: The Whangie, Kilpatrick Hills
Date walked: 28/02/2016
Distance: 4.5km
I can't believe its been over 23 years since we walked The Whangie despite it being on our "doorstep"!
What a gem of a walk. I think i have been put off walking this recently due to the bog factor. However today was such a gorgeous sunny day with cold temperatures the ground was frozen/hard and no problems with any bogginess
Also incredibly, another sunny day at the weekend
A pretty cloudless day
Open views of Ben Lomond to the right and the Arrochar Alps to the left.
Views of The Campsie Fells towards Kilsyth from Auchineden trig point
Burn crooks reservoir
The start of The Whangies rock formation
The narrow chasm of The Whangie
