(S/E) From the car park next to the Tesco supermarket, head across the grass verge and onto the pavement of Glasgow Road/B7038.
(1) Turn left (North East) and walk along the pavement for 450m until you see a single track road on your right, signposted “Borland" (street name on the map is Meikle Road). Cross the Glasgow Road onto Borland.
(2) You'll cross the Fenwick Water then the road will start to go uphill. Near the top of the hill there is a crossroads - continue ahead (East) past the brown access information sign. The road takes you onto the A77 flyover.
(3) 140m beyond the flyover, turn left (North East), following signs for "Borland Lane walking and bike trails". This takes you into Craufurdland woods.
At the end of the long, tree-lined track turn right (South East).This woodland trail brings you out onto the main road in the Estate.
Turn left (North East) and walk along the road, passing the fishing loch and the Laird's Table cafe, and continuing to leave the Craufurdland Estate via the gated entrance.
(4) Turn right (South East) on Waterslap and follow the road 380m to a cottage. Beyond the cottage there is a bridge over the Craufurdland Water and immediately after crossing a bridge look for a ‘Footpath’ sign on your right where there is a gap in the stone wall, leading onto a narrow woodland trail.
Go through the woods. The trail will emerge onto a field at a stile. Cross the stile. There is no visible path beyond this point - just stick to the perimeter of the field, keeping the fence on your right-hand side. This will lead you to another stile. Cross it and the field beyond, then repeat again once more.
(5) When you arrive into the fourth field, cut straight across it in a south west direction (rather than following the perimeter fencing), and the same on reaching the final field.
(6) You will arrive at a final stile leading onto Wardlaw Road. Cross the stile then turn right (West) to reach a ford.
(7) Cross the ford via the footbridge then continue along the road for 800m, walking beneath the A77 flyover on the way.
Turn right (North) at the end of the road junction. This takes you back to the crossroads you were at earlier (2).
Turn left (South West) and retrace your steps back to the car park next to the Tesco supermarket (S/E)
