Easy: Inchinnan Tavern, Clyde Coastal path

To meet at Boden Boo again but this time to..... walk east ! 😲 😵‍💫 A nice easy walk along the Clyde with great views and passing through the small Newshot Island Nature reserve. Newshot was an estuary island but due to Clyde dredging/silting the land now forms part of the south side of the river.

Planning to have a rest and light lunch at the friendly Inchinnan Tavern. The Tavern does normal pub fayre and soups/sandwiches etc.

Dogs are welcome on the walk & in the Tavern.

A chance to talk about flat walks, big hills and the hills that got away.

Meet in the Boden Boo (free) car park Erskine PA8 6AX (take the signposted turn off Crisis Counselling Centre) https://g.co/kgs/QrTWxh

If the car park is busy (unlikely) there's lots of parking space on the adjacent road.

I can give a lift to 2 or 3 from Partick Train station and it's also possible to get public transport to Bishopton/erskine and get a lift down to Boden Boo.
