Not sure of walking alone?
Join us on a walk in the heart of nature with Braveheart’s free health walks designed to support adults, of all abilities, to become more physically and socially active within the community.
Our friendly and welcoming walks promote social inclusion within the community, encourage the use of green space, and raise awareness of the benefits of active travel within your local area.

“Safe Walking, Safe Living”
Safety is a leading barrier to being active outdoors, where inactivity is one of the 10 causes of death (World Health Organisation). Braveheart walks allow individuals to be part of a social group, enabling everyone to feel safe and supported.
Fully trained Walk Leaders
Our Leaders have expert knowledge of the surrounding area and guide our walks throughout Forth Valley. They are full of ideas, and have great enthusiasm for walking outdoors.
Activities for all abilities
Our walks support anyone looking to become physically or socially active within their community. We also support individuals living with Dementia, long term conditions and vision / hearing impairment.
We offer Weekly and Monthly walks throughout Forth Valley for individuals of all abilities (please see ‘Walking Timetable’ on drop down bar).
Our Weekly walks have various walk options- 30 minute slow paced walk, 45 minute medium paced walk & 1 hour brisker paced walk. Our Monthly walks venture further afield and are of longer duration (45 minutes -1.5 hours long) . All walks finish with a tea and a chat in the café afterwards.
