Our Walks in Scotland |
|
I know, Scotland is too big to lump in one area but it will be split up into more manageable areas once we've explored a bit more and bullied some contributors into going walking! Highlands and islands, glens and coast and of course geology to die for....Scotland's got it all! Oh, and apparently there's something called whisky...

FREE TRIAL! |
45 mins/ 1 hour 30 mins: 1 mile (1.6 km) / 2.5 miles (4 km) |
|
A picturesque walk in the Glencoe Estate woodlands with lakes, mountains and even giant redwoods! This is a lovely tranquil place and there are two route options. The short route around the lake is suitable for all, though you really need an ATP to cope with the rougher paths through the woods. |

|
An easy walk along the towpath of the Caledonian Canal past Neptune 's Staircase , Britain 's longest staircase lock. Oh, and on a clear day you get a stunning view of Ben Nevis ! There is an option to shorten the walk and the path is suitable for strollers, but water edges are unprotected. Can be done from the train. |

PWA7 Port Appin Sea Arches |
1 hour: 1.5 miles (2.5 km) |
|
This is a level walk around a beautiful headland to see not only the views but cliffs and arches formed when sea-level was higher than it is today. Good stony track most of the way, but there is a stretch of narrow woodland path for 300m to reach the road. ATPs only, suitable for doubles. |
|
 |
PWA10 Kilmartin Glen Archaeology Trail
|
1 hour 30 mins: 2.5 miles (4.5 km) |
|
Kilmartin Glen is one of the most important archaeological sites in Europe and this easy walk takes you around some of the most important monuments near the village and has lovely views of the valley. Apart from the incline down from the village, the walk is level and the path is suitable for strollers and wheelchairs and the museum has an excellent café! |
|
 |
PWA2 Crinan Canal, near Lochgilphead |
1 hour: 2 miles (3.5 km) |
|
Walk along the Crinan Canal towpath with stunning views of the coastline, estuary and across to the Hebrides. Smooth surfaces all the way, but there is a long uphill stretch to return to the village. This route is suitable all pushchairs except side-by-side double buggies as the locks are too narrow. |
|
 |
PWA3: West Otter Ferry, Lochgilphead |
1 hr: 1.5 miles (2.5 km)
|
 |
A lovely linear walk to a picnic point at the site of the Otter Ferry across Loch Fyne, with views up and down the loch and on a clear day you might even see Arran ! Good track all the way but the rough gravel surface means inflatable tyres are a must. |
|
 |
PWA4: West Otter Ferry Circuit, Lochgilphead |
1 hr 30 mins: 2.5 miles (3.5 km)
|
 |
A tough circular walk to a picnic point at the site of the Otter Ferry across Loch Fyne and then returning on woodland paths and forest tracks. Lovely views up and down the loch and on a clear day you might even see Arran. Gravel tracks and grassy paths with one extremely steep climb making this a tough walk! ATPs only. |
|
 |
PWA5: Lower Black Loch, Oban |
1 hr 30 mins: 3 miles (5 km)
|
 |
Walk to the lowest Black Loch above Oban. This walk has a lovely remote feel despite being easily reached from Oban. The rough gravel surface restricts this walk to pushchairs with pneumatic tyres. Suitable for double buggies and good for little walkers due to the amount of puddles! |
