Galloway Walks

This Website is intended to be a help to all those who enjoy walking or would like to walk in the Galloway Hills (and the adjoining areas). The southwest of Scotland is a beautiful area with a huge variety of scenery and walking terrain. Although the Galloway Hills are the most prominent feature, there is great walking and marvellous views throughout the whole region. This website will therefore take in the whole area within the Clyde on the north, the Irish Sea on the west, the Solway on the south and the M74 Motorway on the east. This means that the islands of Arran, Bute and the Cumbraes are also included. It is hoped that most of the walks will be written up by visitors to the site, and anybody going on any of the walks described must realise the need to take care, especially in bad weather. The difficulty level specified in each walk gives an indication of what to expect and inexperienced walkers should only attempt "C" walks unless accompanied by others with the necessary experience.
