セントラル・スコットランドの天然記念物・トップ4

The waterfall at Colzium, a sight to behold indeed. Nestled in the heart of the Colzium Glen, this waterfall is a part of the Colzium Lennox Estate. It’s a place where nature and history intertwine, creating a tapestry of beauty and intrigue. The waterfall is located at the top of the Glen. To reach it, you follow a path that meanders alongside a burn upstream. You cross a stone bridge and continue upstream. The sound of the water cascading down the rocks is a melody that nature has been perfecting for centuries. Once you reach the waterfall, you cross another bridge and go immediately right to follow a path to a road. This road, known as the Tak-Ma-Doon Road, takes you uphill to a car park and viewpoint. From here, you can enjoy spectacular views of Lanarkshire and beyond.

The Cadzow Oaks are around 700 years old. They were planted at the time of Robert the Bruce! Today they are twisted and mostly hollow, they are still very much alive though and support a wide range of animal and plant life.

Another good waterfall near the road in the Campsies. Shaded so it's a good spot to cool down on a hot day.

The Kelpies are so impressive and definitely worth a visit- they're huge! It's easy cycling to get there, either via the canal or on Route 76 along the shoreline. We stopped a while and had lunch at the visitor centre cafe - all home-made on site and decent sized portions, so perfect for cycle touring!

Just off the forth and clyde canal path is a great place to stop for a break on way to the kelpies. There's also a short trek up to the top but you can't get all the way round too over grown.

Ideally located at end of Forth and Clyde canal cycle path.
