We joined up with the 33rd Scouts, leaders and explorer and set off from Overton car Park to walk the full length of the Greenock Cut, stopped for elevenses at Cornalees and then on to Wemyss bay via the 6 miles of the Kelly cut. All the boys, girls and the dog managed the walk with ease. One of the leaders required assistance - not the oldest!. We were met at Wemyss Bay by Graham and Donald the bus, after refuelling on chips we made our way back to Greenock.
This was the first of our West Highland Way practice hikes, the next 2 will be more challenging to give a true indication of what can be expected - dates will be on the calendar.
