Walk and cycle routes
We want to link up with existing walks groups in the area and
recce some routes that can be printed and posted online as freely
downloadable pdfs. This will complement existing leaflets
produced by Step It Up Highland. The aim is to produce
10 walk/bike routes that incorporate the canal for some part of the
journey - ranging from approximately 3 km to 15 km. These
'guides' will provide mapped directions, information and
interpretation of the natural and built heritage.
Training opportunities
There will be opportunities for anybody who wishes to get a
little more involved in this project in the form of navigation
training, wildlife ID and group management in the field and also
some research and interpretive writing skills. We really want
to support existing groups to keep on enjoying the area and offer
some fresh routes for both locals and visitors.

Existing walks groups will be contacted directly about this
project but anybody who is not currently a member of any group and
would like to get involved, please get in touch with Stephen
