Overview

A full day out on the Ayrshire Coastal Path, for an approximately 11-mile linear walk from Lendalfoot to Turnberry via Girvan on paths, pavement, rocky and sandy shoreline and hillside tracks.

This walk though only featuring one short-ish ascent, is challenging in places due to rocky stretches of shoreline. The tide will dictate how long these stretches are. Please bear this in mind when deciding whether to come along on the walk.
