Starting point
Follow your app's GPS pin to the designated trail entrance at Canada Wood near Falkirk. Use designated local parking areas, park considerately without blocking gates or tracks, and ensure all valuables are out of sight before heading onto the path.
What to bring
Sturdy walking shoes or boots suitable for potentially muddy paths, weather-appropriate layered clothing, a waterproof jacket, a fully charged smartphone with the app pre-loaded, a portable battery bank, and plenty of drinking water.
Terrain & accessibility
Unpaved woodland paths, dirt tracks, and gentle slopes that can become slippery and muddy after rain. Sturdy footwear with good grip is recommended throughout the walk.
Safety
Please stay on established public paths at all times and leave nature undisturbed—never pick, touch, or ingest any plants or fungi. Keep a respectful distance from any wildlife you spot, supervise children closely around rough ground, and keep dogs on a lead where requested.
