This route embraces everything that Galloway Forest Park tries to promote in its recreational use.
It is a demanding route on terrain that has few paths, Galloway tussocks and much of it is wet underfoot. It highlights the role water plays in the Galloway Hills, particularly the series of beautiful lochs, but it doesn’t involve climbing to the high tops.
Starting at Loch Trool, the route takes in the two Glenhead Lochs, Loch Valley, Loch Narroch, Loch Neldricken, Loch Arron to reach the highest loch in Scotland, Loch Enoch at 500 metres before a return finishing at Bruce’s Stone.
