Callendar Wood

Falkirk's picturesque Callendar Wood is at least 500 years old. The wood and adjacent parkland were once the gardens and grounds of Callendar House, a family home for centuries and now a fascinating museum. Explore historic paths and estate carriageways to find panoramic viewpoints, majestic old oaks and sweet chestnuts, yew groves and tree-lined avenues as well as a mausoleum built as a tribute to the Forbes family, Victorian kennels, mining remains and a hill fort.
