Duncarnock Fort (The Craigie), Neilston – 5 miles
7 people attending
5 places left
Duncarnock Fort (known locally as The Craigie) is a craggy hill (204 m / 669 ft) which stands invitingly on the banks of Glanderston Dam. Pausing on the summit of what was formerly an iron age fort, take a moment to wonder about it’s history and all that may have happened here many years ago! On a clear day, just as Mary Queen of Scots is rumoured to have done, you will enjoy panoramic views over greater Glasgow extending to the Campsies in the north.
Dogs: The walk is suitable for dogs, which must be kept under control at all times, particularly near livestock.
