가드록 최고의 사이클링 경로

One of the most interesting bridges I've ever seen—in my opinion, an architectural masterpiece, magnificent..👍👍

Cycling along a canal has always been our thing... The old towpaths are being integrated into the cycle paths, which for us cyclists means always cycling along the water.

The ruined remains of Lennox Castle. Originally built in ~1840 as a private property it was sold to The Glasgow Corporation (predecessor to the City Council) in 1927 and turned into a hospital for those with learning difficulties. In the 1940's-60's it also operated as a maternity home, and was the birth place of singer Lulu. It closed in 2002 and unfortunately was subject to a fire in 2008 which left it in its current state.

Climbing the Crow Road north from Lennoxtown (B822) offers a classic Campsie Fells experience with rewarding views towards Glasgow. Settle in for a sustained ascent averaging around 4-5% over approximately 5-6km. The main physical challenge comes in the middle 'wall' section, where the gradient bites hard, reaching up to around 12-14% and demanding significant, steady effort. Experience the stunning panoramic views unfolding behind you as you gain height. As you emerge onto the open moorland near the summit, be prepared for significant exposure to wind, which often defines the final push to the top of this popular Scottish climb.

On a nice day it’s the perfect little spot to take a wee break and grab a bite or a drink. It’s situated right on the tow path so you don’t need to worry about finding it!

Once you get out of Kirkie, the path is quiet. It's a lovely cycle with lots to see.

The Forth and Clyde Canal was constructed in 1790. It was successful initially but closed in the 1960s. Today it's a leisure destination with a brilliant towpath making an ideal cycling outing.

Stockingfield Junction is a spot along the canal between Maryhill and Ruchill in Glasgow, Scotland. It first opened back in 1777, closed in 1963, and was later restored and reopened in 2022. Originally, it served as a terminus before becoming the junction for the Port Dundas branch off the main line of the Forth and Clyde Canal from 1777.
