Done: Smugglers Trail



What a beautiful night to be outside!
Tonight the Cubs along with a pair of Scouts, a pair of Explorers, and our 2 DoE students all took to the woods to walk the Smugglers Trail from Loans into Dundonald.
After starting off from Collenan Cottages just outside Loans we headed up the road passing cows and horses before entering onto the path proper.
With great excitement the cubs all found sticks to carry and poke at things.
As we passed the reservoir we explained how Troon's water used to come from there but how now it is just used for fishing.
After climbing some trees we finally caught up with the Explorers who had a campfire going along with some drinks and snacks.
After this short break it was a high speed trek into the park at Dundonald Castle as play time would be reduced the longer it took us to get there.
