You'll find a selection of trails to make your trip to Galloway enjoyable at any time of year.

For gentle strolls and lochside ambles, head to our two friendly forest cafés - Kirroughtree and Glentrool. 

There’s a host of wonderful things to see along our trails. Take a quick climb up to the Bruce’s Stone for a stunning panorama over sparkling Loch Trool. Or choose a steep scramble up to Murray’s Monument beside the Queen’s Way for wonderful views and the Grey Mare’s Tail waterfall. 

There’s history in these hills as well. Explore the ruined farming settlement at Polmaddy. Or visit the old oakwood at Knockman Wood, home to the ancient chambered cairn of Boreland.  

Keep an eye out for artworks amongst the trees too, including a lofty red sandstone spire near Talnotry and an earthwork labyrinth beside the Raiders’ Road forest drive.
