Dumgoyne is a distinctive hill that affords fantastic panoramic views over the Campsie hills, Loch Lomond, the Highland Boundary Fault, the Menteith Hills, Arrochar Alps, and Glasgow. Whilst the hill is only 1,401 feet (427 m) high, the sides are very steep and it is a challenging ascent.

Hiking

The steep ascent and descent are challenging (especially with a 15kg backpack on your back), but the effort is definitely worth it.
