Tips from the Community
As always, green spaces and parks in big cities are always crowded, and this park was no exception... The high density of pedestrians and cyclists was difficult for our recumbent bikes..π Luckily, we know the Highland cattle from our local farmers, where we often admire them in the pastures on our β π²βtours.

I took a detour and followed a path marked by black lines in the komoot map. It quickly became too boggy to be rideable.

There were quite a few Highland cows on the property. Mothers and babies, and tan colored or black coloured. They seemed friendly enough with the babies coming to the fence for a pat. Some folk were feeding them carrots too.

Wonderful Country House. Shame it wasn't open when I visited, but the gardens were superb and the exterior of the house was nice.

The start of the West Highland Way is very urban, and the first section will feel more like a country park. Good paths and signs will lead you out of the town towards Loch Lomond.
