Monday's Walk 26th August

Cairnmuir Landslide control works

A shortish (90 minutes one way) walk up to the Cairnmuir Landslide earthworks at the head of the Cromwell Gorge. We will drive to Bannockburn and on towards the DoC carpark at Cornish Point. from where we will follow the Cairnmuir Track for 30 minutes before branching left to a low saddle leading to the earthworks and lunch. Return the same way, in plenty of time for a café stop at Nichols. Any overnight showers should have cleared by mid morning and the walk is relatively sheltered from the southerlies, but be prepared for changeable weather.

Walk leader: Martin Unwin
