The Clyde Walkway is a foot and mountain bike path which runs from Glasgow, Scotland, to just above the UNESCO World Heritage Site of New Lanark.

[2] About 155,000 people use the path every year, of whom about 7,750 undertake multi-day journeys including those covering the entire route.

This section of the path ends at the Watersports Centre in Strathclyde Country Park.

The section ends at Cardies Bride which is 5.1 kilometres (3.2 mi) from the closest train station at Wishaw.

The falls here are 21 m (69 ft) high and migrating salmon and sea trout cannot get any higher up the river.

The village and mills were built in the 18th century to harness the power of the River Clyde to process cotton.

The path ends in open countryside at the top fall, Bonnington Linn, where there is a dam to divert water to the power station.
