Wilsontown
Woodland trails and information panels trace the remains of Wilsontown's ironworks and mining settlement. Families can explore industrial history outdoors, with shorter walks beside the Moosewater Burn and space for a picnic.
Before you go
The easy Quality Row Trail is about one mile and includes a quiet road crossing. The shorter Glen Trail has muddy, uneven ground and a fairly steep slope. Keep dogs under control around farm animals.
