Cycle Steps
Go on to the old railway line path to Kirkintilloch
In Kirkie head for the canal path.
Once on the canal path travel about 6 miles.
Keep going until you pass the golf course on your right.
Take the first right after the golf course.
Head down into the golf course along the public footpath.
Cross the bridge, and follow the path right round to the garden centre
At the garden centre turn left, 50 yrds on cross the main road.
Head along through the estate, until you can turn right heading for Scottish Water
Follow this road for atleast a mile, until you come to the bottom of the Wheelie Brae
Getting up the wheelie brae is a hard task, but certainly worth it. It also depends if its been raining. Most of the time I end up walking it.
Once at the top, pat yourself on the back. Climb over the fence and head across the fields.
Following the public path along, you will eventually have to climb over a turnstyle. Once there you are at the back of Lennox Forest.
