Hiking

Castlehill Point is located on the mouth of the Rough Firth and provides superb sea views out to Ardwell Island and all along the coast. If you visit in the spring, you'll also be rewarded with a wonderful show of wildflowers.

Hiking

There's no castle here anymore, but the views from this promontory of the Galloway coastline and across the Solway Firth to the Cumbrian mountains make this a brilliant destination for a walk. Whichever way you approach the coastal paths are also full of interest
