Reviewed By BigMerk - Glasgow, United Kingdom
I visited here with my son and grandson. Despite being a local, I have never actually visited here before. There is a good amount of free car parking adjacent to the park centre which has toilets, a couple of coffee shops, a kids playground and an adventure course (for older kids). The walks are great and extensive. There are a couple of picturesque lochs and some old ruins, including Mugdock Castle. The walks are popular with walkers, dog-walkers and cyclists as well as the odd horse. A great place to spend a few hours. Entry is free.

The Milngavie Reservoirs is a popular place for Glaswegians looking to get outside of the city for countryside walks. We usually just start the walk at the western side of Mugdock Reservoir where there is a car park. Then follow the footpath round to Craigmaddie Reservoir, around the Water Treatment Works before returning to the car park, which takes about an hour. The paths also take you through attractive woodlands to complement the views across the reservoir and countryside. The area is quite exposed and windy, even on a sunny day.

I hiked the West Highland Way (my first venture into hiking in Scotland) last year and was very pleased with the hike, the marked path, the terrain and gradients along the path, and the accommodations along the way. The West Highland Way was a perfect one week hike for both myself (an experienced long-distance hiker) and my companion (a newbie hiker). I make a practice of not repeating hikes that I have already accomplished, but I would not be unhappy repeating The West Highland Way.

Very well presented remains of a Roman bathhouse. Incredible to imagine how well planned and built the Antonine wall was nearly 2000 years ago.

I used to walk to Clachan of Campsie while training for the WHW...we always stopped for a bowl of homemade soup in the little cafe which was absolutely delicious. Dogs are made very welcome with a bowl of water and food provided. Cakes are delicious too. Its on a very pretty little square with the Campsies as a backdrop, very nice. I would highly recommend stopping here for soup, snack or cake, all delicious. Staff are very friendly and helpful.
8. Lennox Castle

Reviewed By macedonboy - Glasgow, United Kingdom
A real haven for urban explorers. The building is now sadly fenced off. As other reviewers have mentioned that there are gaps in the fencing. The gap does exist, but probably not on an official capacity, so please stay safe and don’t do anything stupid because the building is in danger of collapse. I loved exploring this building, although I was careful to stick to the areas that looked safe. Most of the rooms have been gutted and filled with debris, although some of the rooms that are relatively empty were clearly wards. It's well attested the sorry treatment of the patients of the old hospital here, which evokes a sense of eeriness as I went about exploring. The paths leading towards the old castle are surrounded by woodlands and adds also an atmospheric feel to the whole visit.
