A number of low level walks have been designed to enable the day tripper and walkers who wish to do so, to enjoy less challenging walks and visits to the areas served by the West Highland Line.
It is hoped these walks will also appeal to those with an interest in both local and railway history and also to those who like to bring their dog for a walk in Scotland’s beautiful countryside.
Train travel offers an excellent opportunity to visit the great outdoors and makes the journey to get there a pleasant experience.
