(S/E) From Troon Yacht Marina walk out the main exit on to Harbour Road. Turn left (East) and walk along Harbour Road to a roundabout.
(1) Continue straight on at the roundabout then almost immediately look out for a grassy footpath on your left which takes you away from the main road for a short distance.
(2) Emerging onto North Shore Road next to a car park, turn left (North East) and walk along the pavement for a short distance before merging onto the cycle path running parallel to the B746/North Shore Road.
(3) Follow the cycle path for 1.4km into Barassie. Where the cycle path takes a right turn towards the train station, keep walking ahead (North) along the grass.
(4) Beyond the last houses cross a footbridge over a burn and then head down onto the sandy beach.
The next 4.5km is an easy walk along Irvine Beach.
(5) When you reach the car park at the north end of the beach, turn right (North East) along a sandy ramp which leads past the Coastguard building and out to the roundabout on Beach Drive.
(6) From the roundabout head North onto the promenade - there should be a large car park on your right-hand side and the River Irvine should be on your left.
Turn right (North East) and walk along the promenade and onto Harbour Street.
(7) At the Scottish Maritime Museum, Harbour Street becomes Montgomery Street.
At the end of Montgomery Street turn left (North) to walk along the pavement on Cochrane Street, a row of houses on your left-hand side.
(8) Go around Victoria roundabout in a clockwise direction, coming off at Church Street and following the pavement beneath the railway bridge.
You will arrive outside Fullarton Parish Church where you should follow the pavement left (North West) parallel to the slip road off Marress Roundabout.
(9) After 300m this lane ends and you should turn right (East) to go through an underpass, then continuing ahead onto Waterside Road.
(E). Cross Waterside Road to a footbridge over the River Irvine - crossing the bridge takes you to Low Green, Irvine where this walk ends.
