Ardrishaig TGO Challenge Start Point

Highlight • Settlement

A small town at the east end of the Crinan Canal, on Loch Fyne. Relatively lightly used but offers a great start with a chance to explore a mass of ancient artefacts and some lonely moorlands. Don’t be put off by the forestry — there are ways of avoiding it if you are willing to explore a little!

Getting there: Citylink service from Glasgow Buchanan Street. If you are feeling adventurous, buses and ferries via Gourock, Portavadie and Tarbert should do the trick.
