Loch Thom and the Greenock Cut
6 people attending
6 places left
An easy and mostly flat walk in rural 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 7 mile 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 tarmac country roads, gravel tracks and grassy footpaths. You will be rewarded with fantastic views to Greenock, Gourock, the River Clyde and the southern Scottish mountains.
Dogs: The walk is suitable for dogs, which must be kept under control at all times, particularly near livestock.
