Halo @Halo01

Part of balloch Park there is a woodland walk called whinny hill path. This is a gravel path and takes you up through the whinny wood, cross the road and through gate and steep walk to the whinny hill. Lovely walk, halo loved it 😀 not much bins but afterwards you get to a sign saying you can do a round walk through another wood and up to him and bench for break. We did this,very muddy. But worth the views, the open field and sat on the bench for drink and something to eat. Coming back down was just as nice. All I can say us, my pup is sound sleep, my boots are cleaned and taking a rest.
