Wellies are strongly recommended!

You can’t continue on this road and take the forrest track on to Stration.

Lovely views of an arched bridge crossing over the River Doon.

Enjoy the still and refreshing waters of Bogton Loch situated near the town of Dalmellington. The path around the loch is grassy and undulating and provides some wonderful views across the surrounding rolling countryside.

Castle ruins on the side of Loch Doon. According to reports the ruins are currently fenced off (Oct 2022). but it's still worth stopping by the site for a look.

Stunning if caught in correct light.

Unfortunately the Health and Safety mob have fenced off this ruin as they are doing to many such structures in Scotland.

Loch Doon Castle used to be located on an island within Loch Doon. It was dismantled and rebuilt on the side of the loch after the loch water level was raised in the 1930s for a hydro-electric scheme. Plenty of history to appreciate as the caslte was built in the 14th century and important in the Scottish wars of independence. Great views of the Loch too, so a good place to stop and explore.

Good road surface around the west side of the Loch. Fantastic views over the water and over Galloway park on the other side.

I also thought if this was unoccupied it would be a great camp spot but then there was another perfect spot 2mins later towards Loch Doon 🙌

A bench with a lovely view over Loch Riecawr in Galloway. We were here in the early morning and watched the geese taking off and landing on the still loch.

Small ruined castle by the shore

Great place to bivvy for the night albeit a little exposed...the layers were on that night.

This viewpoint is on the Carrick Forest Drive which is closed to motor vehicles for 2021, but open for walkers and cyclists. Bliss on a bike 🚴‍♂️😎

Lovely open space for a bivvy & listening to the Famous Black Grouse, spectacular views of the locals hills/moorland.

Single track tarmac road in good condition up to the reservoir at Loch Braden, then gravel onwards. Great place for peace and quiet, and a picnic.

The castle was dismantled and rebuilt on the side of the loch after the loch water level was raised in the 1930s for a hydro-electric scheme. The original castle was built in the 13th Century on an island in the middle of Loch Doon that has since been flooded.
