Alloa and the surrounding Clackmannanshire and Stirlingshire areas are at their best in the summer months when the weather is warmer (though rarely hot) and daylight hours are long. That’s peak season, however, which may mean booked-up sites, especially during the school holidays in July and August. September or October are good alternatives for enjoying the area with fewer crowds and rich autumnal foliage. Winter visitors will contend with cold conditions and short daylight hours, but beautiful, crisp landscapes.
