Activities In Stirling and Falkirk

Go Ape Aberfoyle rates 4.8 and is the pick for children old enough for harnesses and height. Queen Elizabeth Forest Park carries the same rating for a walk with no equipment involved, and Rednock Trekking, also 4.8, swaps walking for riding. Twenty-eight of the forty-three listings record outdoor space.

Argaty Red Kites at 4.8 is the standout for that, and red kites are big enough to keep the interest of a child who usually drifts off fast. Queen Elizabeth Forest Park is the broader option if you want a walk with the chance of seeing something rather than a scheduled sighting.

Castle Campbell rates 4.7 and records both indoor and outdoor space, which makes it the more weather-proof choice. The National Wallace Monument carries the same rating and rewards children who will manage the climb. Bannockburn at 4.9 is the highest rated historic listing of the three.

Twenty-five of the forty-three attractions record indoor space, so there is a plan B without much searching. Escape Stirling at 4.9 leads that group for older children. Castle Campbell and The National Wallace Monument both list indoor areas too, which keeps a history day alive in poor conditions.
