Falkirk Canal Tunnel

Easily accessed through the Falkirk High Train Station which has ample parking for £2.60 for the day. If you are looking for a longer walk it's 2 mile...

👍👍 Falkirk is not short of areas for short walks, and this is one of the best. Full of interest, whether it's the woodlands or the historical references that interest you. Well waymarked, good paths, separate (and graded) mountain bike trails -a really nice place to spend an afternoon.

Torwood Blue Pool
Scenic spot
😠 I can imagine that in better times this would have been a magical place to visit. Unfortunately that was not the case today. The pool is very low, scummy water filled with litter, beer cans, plastic bags, camping tents, old camping chairs - an absolutely disgusting show. Surrounded by large areas...
