Bearsden Station to Milngavie Station

a great route with lots to see along the way. A short, pleasant urban route linking three large green spaces with residential streets, on a mix of paved roads and wooded footpaths and including shady paths around Kilmardinny Loch and along the Craigdhu Burn. A few steps and a steep section make it foot-only. Makes good use of three green spaces: Kilmardinny Loch park, the Craigdhu Burn corridor and Lennox Park. No refreshments on route but plenty at either end.

Easy: 4km, moderate ascents.

Several flights of steps (around Kilmardinny Loch and at Lennox Park) and a steep section. A couple of busy roads to negotiate, with no good nearby crossing at the Lennox Park junction. The green sections could feel daunting to a solo walker after dusk.

Lunch: No refreshments on route, but plenty at either end.
