A friendly, local event in East Lothian

Butterdean is near Gladsmuir village between Tranent and Haddington. It is a flat wood densely planted with conifers and patches of birch or ash. There is a good track and path network - and some animal sculptures. It is managed by the Woodland Trust and East Lothian Council.

Please note that we are parking on the east side of the wood at Alba Trees - see detailed directions online.

This will be ELO's club championship for 2025!.
