Took the train to Stirling yesterday. Exiting the station, headapollo and I walked to the Old Bridge, which we then crossed to continue on to Wallace Monument. Up there the view of the town was spectacular, and you could see Stirling Castle across the way. We then walked back down town and up to the Church of Holy Rude (not to be confused with the Holyrood of Edinburgh), which has a huge cemetery. There is a peak that has benches where you can relax and enjoy the view that overlooks both the town and the Castle. We took a shortcut through the cemetery and climbed a staircase that leads up to the Castle. From there we could look across the ‘valley’ to the Wallace Monument. Enjoyed a coffee at the Bean Scene and then had dinner at a great Indian restaurant. Great day.
