About the event

Threpmuir Reservoir & Black Hill Evening Circular
Overview
A leisurely walk around Threpmuir Reservoir, where we’ll discover the vital role this water supply has played over the years. From there, we’ll gently climb along the side of Black Hill, where even a modest height gain rewards us with stunning, far-reaching views across the Pentland Hills and surrounding countryside.

Our route takes us past the 15th-century Bavelaw Castle, through a charming beech tree avenue, and beside the wildlife-rich landscapes of Bavelaw Marsh and Red Moss, before looping back to our starting point.

This is a perfect walk for those who enjoy a mix of nature, views, and local history.

This walk is on a mixture of stony & peat paths which can be wet & muddy as well as uneven so walking boots are recommended. It is advisable to bring a walking pole if you use one for extra support as we descend off Black Hill & bring a drink to keep yourself hydrated.

Spaces are limited to 20 so it is essential to book with the Walk Leader by no later than the day before the walk. Please state if you wish to join the car share from Livingston at the time of booking your place.
