Torbrex who posts over on the Arms took a pal around these areas and took photos, made up a couple of maps of itineraries, might give you some inspiration,.

Had a good time. We visited;
Falkirk Wheel
Boness Motor Museum
The Kelpies
Calendar House
Intended to visit the Riverside Museum in Glasgow, but got caught in a dreadful snow storm on route and turned back. Went to the Vue Cinema and had a nice meal at Nandos instead.

Thanks for all your helpful suggestions

Are they free? I thought there was a charge.

Do I need to pay to see The Kelpies? No. Access to The Kelpies is freely available 24/7, 365 days a year except in special circumstances. The Kelpies are lit up with LED lights an hour after sun down every night. The light-up time changes throughout the year with the weather and season.
The only paid part of visiting The Kelpies is The Kelpies Experience Tour.
