** SORRY - THIS WALK IS FULLY BOOKED ** This walk starts at the old, ruined Kirk at Girthon before heading towards the coast, where there is plenty of historical interest and lovely coastal landscapes.
We start at the old Kirk of Girthon, with its covenanter memorials and crosses the fields to Rainton Farm. A short walk along a minor road leads to a farm track past the tower house of Plunton Castle. Taking further farm tracks and crossing fields we make our way to the coast at Castle Haven with its ancient Dun.
The route then follows the coast past the Coo Palace once home to twelve pampered cows. Further on we pass a derelict bathing hut on a sandy beach and Knockbrex House with views along the coast to the tidal islands of Barlocco and Ardwall. Then onward through the chalet park on the Carrick shore to the caravan park at Sandgreen with its sandy beach and ice cream!
