We are the Kilmarnock & Loudoun Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

This walk is part of The Ayrshire Coastal Path. It is graded C+ 8 miles in total, but can be shortened at various points en route. There are no hills on this walk.
We start from Hyndman Road car park (mind the pot holes) and walk along the beach to Portencross, with its medieval peel tower of Portencross Castle. We then follow a good farm track to Hunterston. From then on we will walk on pavements and cycle tracks to Largs Marina. We will return by bus at 1424 from Largs Marina back to the cars, so please remember your bus pass if you have one.
The views on this section of the coastal path are over Arran, Little and Great Cumbrae and beyond.
Risks - there is a short section of seaweed, which can be slippery at the end of the beach walk. We will be sharing a section of cycle path with cyclists.
The walk leader will meet you at Hyndman Road car park. Please let Mattie know if you plan to travel direct to start of walk.
