I’ve been trying to do this walk for years but the weather, changes to the dates and Covid19 (to name but three) have contrived to impede our plans. However, as is often the way, the plot has thickened (and hopefully improved!)

We meet for coffee (provided) at The Balloch House Vintage Inn at 10.30 am. After coffee, we take the train from Balloch to Dalreoch (8 minutes) and then simply walk back along a surprisingly rural River Leven to Balloch. Somewhere along the way I hope to find a sheltered and clandestine nook for our carols! Our Christmas meal (remember those?) will also celebrate (a little late) my 75th birthday and will also be provided. Ah happy memories!
