Walk the Helix & discover a huge path network
Whether your aim is to get fit, relax in the fresh air, or
explore your local area, the walks around the new Helix path
network have loads to offer. Walking is a popular activity in
Scotland, but you don't have to head for the hills. Get out and
about on local walking trails and enjoy the outdoors.
New routes near you
12km of new and upgraded paths are already proving popular as
walking routes with local people. The paths also improve
connections between Grangemouth, Beancross, Polmont, Lower Braes,
Laurieston and Westquarter.
A great way to get fit
We're working with Step Forth and Paths for All
to show off the huge health benefits walking offers. Did
you know a 30-minute walk five times a week can help you stay fit
and healthy? Are you able to change your routine to walk more
often?
Walk with a group
Get involved in a local walking group and make the most of the
new Helix paths. Bring the little one in a buggy or give
Nordic walking a try.
Find out more about nearby Walking Groups or become a walk
leader.
We're also running Wednesday evening
walking tours
throughout the summer.
Bring the dog
The Helix has teamed up with Green Dog Walkers
(GDW) to keep the Helix paths free from dog fouling.
We're running weekly Evening Walking Tours and we'd be delighted
to see you. The walks take place every Wednesday evening.
