Absolutely breathtaking views and a really enjoyable hike. The scenery was spectacular from start to finish - I could've stayed up there for hours if it weren’t for the scorching heat! I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Scotland, especially when I’m around Glasgow. Highly recommend for anyone who loves nature and stunning landscapes.
Nice walk offering easy walks alongside more challenging steeper routes. Plenty to see, do and explore including a waterfall, ponds and plenty of wildlife... we saw a toad yesterday.
Great dry day out on a budget. Lovely walk and lots to see. There are also free roam cattle with their young, so I suggest keeping dogs on a leash in certain areas. There are waterfalls and fun little bridges to cross. Had a great time and got amazing photographs of the Highland Cows.
Beautiful escape from the city! Easily accessible by car with numerous parking spaces, some small, some larger. Gorgeous views of Paisley, Glasgow, and the mountains. The terrain is not challenging and is suitable for young children. Most of the areas are not wheelchair accessible but the view point has a parking lot, so it's a very good spot for people who would struggle walking long distances.
This is a great place to go walking, either on your own, with the kids, or with the dog. On a clear day, the views and scenery are fantastic!! There is a small playpark, picnic benches, and benches located in various areas throughout. There is also a good-sized car park. Can easily spend a couple of hours here. Highly recommend.
Always a wee nice place to have a walk and some fresh air.
Definitely a lovely place for going a walk, there are so many different ways that your able to go and explore. Also had a stunning view of paisley and the surrounding areas, if up on a clear night you can see for miles all around it looks stunning. Your also able to watch the planes take off from Glasgow Airport during the day, also able to at night but only really when landing. It is definitely a great spot to take a picnic up and just sit in your car and watch the world go by. There is also a little swing park, for the kids to play on which is quite good. The only downside in that it is very dark at night and there are bo lights. There is no nearby toilets that can be used thus impacting the experience.
Great views and a tranquil part of Paisley to go and look over Glasgow and Paisley. There is also a walk that has great scenarios. The city from here at night is also stunning!
A beautiful country park with loads if designated pathways. A mixture of pine trees and other native species. Highland cattle are grazed in this area so watch your step. Plenty of free car parking and benches scattered here and there as well as a children’s outdoor adventure swing park. This is a very popular place with dog walkers, hikers, families and local off road vehicles! Set stop the hillside it is worth just visiting for a great view of Foxbar and Paisley. Only downside is a lot of traffic and aircraft noise. I often go for day trips with a shelter and eat lunch , I don’t camp overnight.
