Walk of the Week: River Avon, Linlithgow bridge
THE River Avon is not the best-known stretch of water in Scotland but, tucked away in a bucolic corner of the Central Belt, it is a tranquil place for a stroll.
The 11 miles of the River Avon Heritage Trail were laid out by the Central Scotland Forest Trust and this route follows part of it between a viaduct and aqueduct dating back nearly 200 years.
Wildlife, including the easy-to-spot goosanders, abounds and the feeling of being a lot further from the urban and industrial sprawl of Falkirk and West Lothian is strong.
