This scenic road runs parallel to the Nith estuary, offering views over the water revealing a mudstone bed with glacial sands. It's where the River Nith meets the Solway Firth, an inlet of the Irish Sea.

The estuary provides a crucial habitat for various bird species, including waders, ducks, and geese, particularly during the winter months. The area is recognised as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a Special Protection Area (SPA) for birds.
