On
the Bargrennan to St John’s Town of Dalry section from east of Loch Trool at
Glenhead (NX 433 799) the route takes you over the hill towards Trostan Burn
then back onto the forestry track, during the 2007 season we received many
comments that this route seems pointless and has very bad conditions under
foot. We suggest following the cycle track south of the route on this stretch
to avoid unnecessary climbing and wet conditions.
Also the start
of this route section has changed which can be confusing if you are using old
guide books, the map below shows the old route, the new route takes the line of
the river south, then heading north again meeting back up with the route at
Grid Ref NX 372 771. This has added approximately 3 miles to the route.
For walkers
walking independently then please be aware of the long distance into Dalry
(25.25 miles / 40 kms) If you need vehicle support this is available from
Craigenbay (Grid Ref NX 543 789) reducing this section to 17.5 miles / 28 kms.
Should you
require assistance or for further information please call our Dalry office on :
