Girnway is a path in the Craik Forest. On this stretch, you will be able to see the lovely Girnwood Loch (although not directly accessible from the path - the more experienced of you could try wild-walking to it). When you reach Hoscote Burn (the southern end of it), in the summer you should see the area covered in gorgeous purple heather (purple being the colour of the soul!)
