Ascent
 

The route starts south of Garlieston near Crugglton Church. We cross the fields over to Cruggleton Castle and then follow the cliff top into the coastal woodland and grounds of Galloway House. We contrast the present day serenity of the area with the important part the area played in the second world war. Our walk finishes in the attractive harbour village of Garlieston where there will be opportunities for refreshments.

We've arranged with the Harbour Inn in Garlieston to offer us an optional soup and sandwich lunch at extra cost, which is payable on the day. We'll ask you at the start of the walk if you wish to take up this offer. Alternatively, there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy a picnic in the village.
