The Greenock Cut

Professional from the tourism industry

Departure from Inverclyde

Designated as an Ancient Monument, The Greenock Cut is an aqueduct built in the 1820s to supply water from Loch Thom to Greenock. The 11.5km route is full of interesting features which is probably why it has been rated one of the top 50 walks in Scotland! It is an easy walk along surfaced minor roads, gravel tracks and grassy footpaths. You will be rewarded with fantastic views to Greenock, Gourock, the River Clyde and the southern Scottish mountains.

Shielhill Glen, Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park

Departure from Inverclyde

Family-friendly woodland walk. A haven for many birds and animals this lovely circular offers a chance to walk part of the historic Kelly and Greenock Cuts as well as taking in a semi ancient woodland.

Loch Thom, Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park

Departure from Inverclyde

Circumnavigate Inverclyde’s largest loch with fine views across the Parks moorlands and hills. First known as the Great Reservoir or Little Caspian, it was later renamed in honour of the engineer who designed the Greenock Cut, Robert Thom.

Strone Hill

Departure from Scotland

Strone Hill overlooks the village of Strone and offers superb views over the Firth of Clyde and its sea lochs. On a clear day, it is possible to see over to Arran, the Arrochar Alps and down the Clyde to Inversnaid Tarbet Glasgow.

Garelochhead to Balloch, The Three Lochs Way

Professional from the tourism industry

Departure from Argyll and Bute

This part of The Three Lochs Way is much flatter than the first half and definitely the easier of the two days. It passes through the pretty town of Helensburgh. Despite the walk’s name, you leave the lochs behind for much of the way, meeting back up with Loch Lomond in the final stages. This is The Three Lochs Way Day 2.
