Burns Day Walk, Alloway

Step into the world of Robert Burns on the very day Scotland celebrates his life and legacy - Sunday 25th January.

This 5km walk will bring you face-to-face with some of Burns’ most iconic landmarks: the haunting ruins of the Auld Kirk, the graceful Brig o’ Doon, the Burns Monument, and the thatched cottage where he was born.

We’ll follow the Poet’s Path, a traffic-free walkway lined with sculptures inspired by his verses, and pause at the colourful Alloway Railway Tunnel murals which reimagine his work for the modern day.

Our walk will finish around 3.15pm inside the Alloway Railway Tunnel where the Ayrshire Fiddle Orchestra will be playing some tunes and leading some ceilidh dances!

This is a unique opportunity to celebrate Burns’ birthday in the very place it all began.

Tickets £22 per person.
