Welcome to The Helix, a captivating destination where nature's beauty intertwines with imaginative design and a vibrant community thrives.

Rooted in a rich history, The Helix stands as a testament to the resilience and spirit of Falkirk. From its industrial past to its transformation into a symbol of renewal, this park embodies the essence of progress and innovation.

At the heart of The Helix is a deep connection to nature. Immerse yourself in the lush green landscapes, meandering pathways, and shimmering waters that make this park a sanctuary for both wildlife and visitors alike. Our commitment to sustainability and conservation ensures that this precious ecosystem thrives for generations to come, with Green Flag status and the Green Tourism Gold Award being testament to our dedication.

Creativity flows through every corner of The Helix, showcased most prominently by the iconic Kelpies. These awe-inspiring equine sculptures, crafted by artist Andy Scott, captivate the imagination and pay homage to the horses that once powered Scotland's industrial might.

As a community-driven space, The Helix is more than just a park; it's a gathering place where connections and memories are made. Join us for an array of vibrant events that celebrate culture, music, and the arts, fostering a sense of unity and joy. Experience the power of community as we come together to create moments of inspiration and shared experiences.

The creation, development, transformation and up-keep of The Helix would not be possible without the generous support of our funding partners, Falkirk Council, Big Lottery, Scottish Canals, Sustrans and SCORE. We extend our deepest gratitude to those who have believed in our vision and contributed to the realisation of this extraordinary project. Their commitment has allowed us to create a place that nourishes the mind, body and spirit.

Join us on this remarkable journey as we continue to shape and evolve The Helix, creating a legacy that will inspire generations to come.
