NS4274 : Cycle path at Milton

taken 8 years ago, near to Milton, West Dunbartonshire, Scotland

Cycle path at Milton
Cycle path at Milton
The railway line is on an embankment that is parallel to, and to the left (south) of the cycle path. As shown in the picture, another path cuts across the cycle route here: to the left, it leads, by means of an underpass, below the railway line (NS4274 : Path to the shore); to the right, it leads to the main road (A82): NS4274 : The Crags Circular Path at Milton.

The crossing of the two paths is shown, from the other side, in NS4274 : Cycle path near Dumbarton and NS4274 : Old railway line at Milton. In the present picture, the bridge visible ahead is the one that is shown in NS4274 : Road bridge at Dumbuck and (looking back from there) in NS4274 : Under the road bridge.

There is water in the foreground because the picture was taken from the flooded area that is shown in NS4274 : Flooded cycle path. Right of centre, through the trees, looms the shape of NS4274 : Dumbuck Quarry.
National Cycle Network Route 7 :: NX7662
