エック湖のおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Good little cafe van for coffee and food

A beautiful garden with great views and paths. Really worth a visit, especially when the Rhododendrons are in bloom. Only 15min by bike from Dunoon!

Turn left when you reach the information board and follow the tarmac pathway all the way back to the start point at Puck's Glen Car park

Continue down to the bottom near the information board. Be careful if you have a dog as it is quite near the busy road here. Across the road is Benmore Gardens if you want to find the cafe or combine a visit. There is also another walk beside the river you can merge with here.

You will pass a huge fallen tree from the 1998 gales weighing 10 tons apparently! The original path crossed the tree using a footbridge. Sadly this is closed due to repair work but there is a pathway around d the tree

Just keep following the forest road, on past the marker for the blue path to turn off (unless you want to shorten your walk) until you reach the orange and blue marker point

just follow the orange marker points all the way up the glen. I took loads of pics. It's such a magical place. Didn't stop my calf muscles complaining though. And I didn't see any fairies!

Park up in Pucks Glen Car Park. Saddened to see all the litter here. Wish people would be more considerate. Start the walk by following the path beside the plastic looking lodges (don't be enticed by the little footbridge heading uphill)
