With some very 'wintery' stormy days, you need to get out to avoid hibernating with food and TV.

Walk 1 - Ardmore point nr Helensburgh, good for an hrs walk.

Walk 2 - John Muir Way - the section between Boness and Blackness. This section has become very smooth Tarmac, no more singletrack for mountain biking.

Walk 3- Witches Craigs/Korean War Memorial and Cairnpapple. This was exposed today, very cold. Almost needed goggles in the driving sleet and snow.

Cairnpapple is more than 5000 yrs old.
