Route: Shale Trail (United Kingdom)

The Shale Trail is a 16 mile walking, running and cycling route between West Calder and Winchburgh, via the Almond Valley Heritage Centre in Livingston and the Broxburn using the Union Canal.  The trail passes through several historical shale mining towns.

The surface of the path route is also variable ranging from small sections of woodland track which will become muddy to sections of tarmacked path.
