West Lothian: 40 Favourite Walks

The lastest 40 Favourite Walks guide offers a variety of routes around West Lothian which take in the surprising number of country parks, craggy hills and wildlife havens in the area. The routes also cover prehistoric burial sites, ruined castles, palaces and stately homes as well as the remains of the Antonine Wall, the distinctive red spoil heaps, or bings, from the extensive coal, iron and shale oil mining operations in the 18th and 19th centuries and the Union Canal which linked Falkirk to the capital via some of the county’s most impressive aqueducts.
