Kids Days Out In Falkirk

Falkirk is home to the Falkirk Wheel, the rotating boat lift that connects the Forth and Clyde and Union canals, and it is genuinely worth seeing in action with children. Boat trips take you up and down the lift itself, and there is outdoor space and a visitor centre around it. Falkirk sits between Glasgow and Edinburgh, so it is straightforward to reach from either, and it works well as a half day that can be paired with something else nearby. The listing below has directions, opening times and booking details.
