What visitors say
Lovely place to come and take a walk - you have several different routes you can take. There's a play park for kids, BBQ area, woodland walks, walks by the water. There is a visitor centre that sells coffee and ice cream; but the last time I went it was cash only. Sheep (shut farmers gates behind you), horses and now I've noticed 2 highland cows as well! ☺️☺️ The walk I do is often 45 minutes along a stream to find Lins mill to see the barges etc, the sheep, cows and then another 45 minutes back!

Great place for walking and cycling .good, free parking. Links to routes to Edinburgh via the canal and into Livingston and a continuous off road, approx 14 mile,loop through parks and along the railway path around Livingston. Spectacular views from the numerous bridges over the river almond including the very high viaduct.

Almondell is great for a long, or short, walk with lots of different routes. There is a play park for kids, a visitor centre with seating, an outdoor tap to fill up your water bottle and has a dog bowl for dogs, a BBQ area and a large park to run around in. A great all-rounder 👍

Absolutely stunning place! Holidaying in Scotland and found this place. Me and my partner spent 2hrs walking here, we could of went longer if we didn't have other plans. Such beautiful scenery and peaceful place. We will definitely be going back, but for a longer walk and a picnic.
