Route notes
The route is shared with walkers of the West Highland Way and some stretches are narrow. Be polite and courteous to walkers as it is predominantly a walking route and many on it are tourists.
There's a lot of gates along the old railway line which require you to dismount.
The decent into Blane Valley is initially very steep and it may be easier to hike-bike down slightly.
Parking
Free parking is available at Milngavie train station.
