September 2nd Saturday Strollers

Our regular monthly walking-group is coming up this Saturday - the second of our 'socially-distanced' walks!

... Scotland is obviously still in 'Phase 3' of the route map for coming out of lockdown, so once again we're going to keep it quite local to Shandon (in the South West of Edinburgh).

And - obviously; if any more than 15 people, from 5 households, do turn up; then we'll split into 2 distinct groups. And if there are 2 groups, then they will stay completely separate, and we'll likely just leave the starting-point (see below) at least a clear 10-15minutes apart. And regardless of overall numbers, all 'households' will obviously still need to keep socially-distant from each other.

Thus; for this coming Saturday, the rough details are as follows:

- meet at 10am, Saturday 12th September beside the main 'Kids Playground' in Harrison Park West
- see local map link here: https://goo.gl/maps/EfounRadJs2SXhK59
- if required; plenty of public transport options (buses) run nearby along Slateford Road

- the rough walking route will be: Shandon - Hutchison - Saughton Park - Murrayfield - Carrick Knowe - up, over and around Corstorphine Hill - turn back just before reaching Davidson Mains - then return on a very similar route to Shandon

- that should be around 8 miles, and given its fairly local we can easily shorten the route if conditions so require!
- should take us about 4-5 hours to complete (including lunch stop)

- we may well be able to access some refreshments at the Garden Bistro, in Saughton Park :-)
- but please do bring along some snacks/packed-lunch etc.

If you're interested in coming along, and need any further detail, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me directly!
