Return to New Lanark & the Falls of Clyde

http://www.snh.gov.uk/enjoying-the-outdoors/year-of-natural-scotland-2013/

It was a trip to far for Stuart Adamson who sent this little ditty for his no show today
as Las Ramblas head into the valley

Gillian,Alison,Layla,Bruce,Marion,Gary & Avril
take a soggy saunter down Lanarkshire way.
but first let's check the weather with Sean
"Well Las Ramblas with all the rain we've had over the last few days
it could be a tad slippy underfoot, but clear skies with only
 a slight chance of showers".
The conservation village of New Lanark is the gateway to the Falls of Clyde Wildlife Reserve, which is owned and managed by the Scottish Wildlife Trust. From New Lanark you can enjoy beautiful riverside walks through the Reserve, following in the footsteps of the many poets and painters including Wordsworth and Turner. There are three waterfalls upstream from New Lanark lying on the Clyde Walkway: Dundaff Linn (3 metres) is the close to the village. Corra Linn (28 metres) and Bonnington Linn (11 metres)
For information about the Falls of Clyde Reserve, visit the Scottish Wildlife Trust's Visitor Centre at the old mill in New Lanark, or  http://www.newlanark.org/index2.shtml
