Walk 1

This is a linear walk starting at Collin Village Hall at the above grid reference. There is a small parking area next to the hall. The walk takes you through lovely farming country and woodland. • There is an underpass for pedestrians under the A75 just to the left of the village hall. • This brings you almost to the B724. Turn right onto this road. It’s a narrow road with not much traffic although there may be large farm machinery on the move. • Walk along the road to Greenlea and turn right. • Walk through the village past the houses turning right at the end of the road and then a sharp left over the railway line. (see map 1 opposite). • This is a new section of path that takes you to Racks. (see map 2) • It is possible to walk to Elizafield and Racks on the B724 to access this path. • Walk through Racks to the end of the houses. • Walk past the houses and onto a track at the end on the right. • This takes you between Craigs Moss and Racks Moss and you will walk parallel to Lochar Water. • Back track to return to Collin.

Walk 2

Just after the railway line in Racks the path into the Racks Moss may be passable. On some maps this is a circular walk on some OS maps it isn’t. Woodland tracks change over time.
