Boasting a cast of thousands (of trees), this blockbuster takes EWRE members on a new adventure *through* the Benhar and Fauldhouse forests, *past* the site of the "lost village" of East Benhar, and directly *beneath* the giant blades of the West Benhar wind farm.
It's a circular, starting and ending at Harthill Service Station on the M8 -so easy to reach by both bus and car.
The route is eight to nine miles, mostly over good paths/track. However, we'll encounter the occasional "challenging" muddy section and appropriate footwear is recommended.
Harthill Services is served by the Citylink 900 coach from Edinburgh (and Glasgow) every 15 minutes. The Meet-up point is the WESTBOUND sector with the start timed to coincide with the scheduled arrival of the service leaving Edinburgh's St Andrew Sq bus station at 09.45 then calling at various stops to Maybury at 10.05. Anyone travelling from Glasgow should cross by the footbridge after alighting the bus.
If the car park is full motorists will find plenty of on-street spaces in the village immediately adjacent the westbound sector.
Sorry, no dogs.
