After 800 metres, at a waymark post, take a side path to the right. It passes a viewpoint on the left (the view currently obstructed by trees), then descends steep wooden steps towards the river. The path runs to the left, to a bend in a smooth, gravelled all-abilities path (the Lednock Millennium Footpath). Fork down right, soon zigzagging down to picnic tables at the riverside. The path continues downstream, to emerge near a car park at the edge of Comrie.

Turn right, away from the car park, onto a footbridge over the river. In another 150 metres, turn left down Nurses Lane to Comrie’s main street. Cross to the right into Manse Lane, down to the riverside. Turn right, to pass under Dalginross Bridge, then turn up onto the roadway above.

Cross Water of Ruchill to the car park.
