The Helix, Scotland
The Helix is a new attraction located between Falkirk and Grangemouth, Scotland; and is described as ‘A place for everyone’. It is a new parkland providing activities such as cycling, walking, watersports and more. The Helix is also home to The Kelpies, two 30-metre-high horse head sculptures, which are the world’s largest equine sculptures. Designed by Scottish sculptor Andy Scott, these sculptures are each made with 300 tonnes of structural steel and are monumental tributes to the horse power heritage that was vital to the early industries of central Scotland. There are currently 500 km of connected cycle paths which provide the ideal way to explore the parkland and surrounding area.
