About this place

Scottish Wildlife Trust ancient woodland reserve with easy family walking trails.

Managed by the Scottish Wildlife Trust, this ancient woodland reserve offers gentle, easy family walking trails through trees that have stood on this site for centuries, a genuinely rare survival so close to a busy modern town. The reserve supports a good range of woodland wildlife, from birds to wildflowers depending on the season. Its accessible, low-key trails make it a good option for a shorter, unhurried walk rather than a strenuous outing. It's free to visit, with parking nearby and the main paths suitable for buggies.
