Groovy Geology Walk

About Groovy Geology Walk

Join us for a scenic ranger-led walk along the Hopetoun foreshore as part of the Scottish Geology Festival! Discover the geological wonders of West Lothian and perhaps catch a glimpse of local wildlife.

Meet at the old Kiosk in the visitor car park. This walk will cover approx. 3 miles with rough underfoot conditions and requires a good level of fitness.

It is not suitable for children under 8 years of age. Please wear suitable clothing and shoes for the Scottish weather.

Binoculars may be useful.

Dogs are not allowed on Ranger-led walks.

Information for gate access will be emailed a week before the event. Your ticket grants access to the Grounds for the rest of the day.

We look forward to exploring the fascinating geology of the area with you!
