Hello Everybody,
The walk for April is at Carradale, and will be led by Matthew Ramsay. Meet at the church car park for 11.00, arrange transport, and meet Matthew at Portnastorm car park 11.30'ish. From there we go to Carradale Bay, then walk out to Carradale Point on to goat island to see the vitrified fort. Stop for lunch. We then walk back above the route we took on the way out, which is a path, come back along the bay to the caravan park and complete the circuit back to Portnastorm car park.
This walk is approx. 5 miles, and starts off on grass, followed by sand along the beach, and then by road.
Please bring packed lunch, waterproofs, sensible footwear, and a stick if you feel it necessary.
Matthew has said that if this is unsuitable due to weather, he will ask the laird of Torrisdale estate if we could walk there if need be.
Unfortunately John and I will be away, so enjoy the walk (which we're sad to be missing), and we'll see you in May.
Regards,
John and Marion
Kenny
