GREAT SCOTTISH WALKS - AROUND SCOTLAND - SUMMER 2008

Put your best foot forward for CHAS

 
 

Dates have now been announced for this year's Great Scottish Walks and Great Wee Scottish Walks.  With dates ranging from April to August there is sure to be a walk in your area that you can take part in.  To apply online or find our more information about the walks go to Great Scottish Walk.

New for 2008 - a second Great Scottish walk has been added to the schedule to take place at Glasgow Green and like the original Edinburgh walk offers a choice of three distances that walkers can choose to complete according to their ability levels (1 mile, 6 miles or 12 miles). A new wee walk has also been added at Galston, East Ayrshire.
