A quick hike up to the tower rewards you with expansive views over the town and the nearest islands , very atmospheric at night when its all lit up ,this is an iconic structure thats now synanomous with Oban even though it was never finished. Free to enter and has a nice viewing platform with very informative board that tells you what hills, islands and villages you can see.

Great circular walk and the beach under the castle was a great spot for a picnic lunch. Allow 3-4 hours for the trip. Castle in really good condition and wonderful views.

Can't thank Gavin enough for his excellent customer service, I visited the shop a few years ago after my mother purchased products from Purdies of Argyll and now I use the online shop to purchase gifts for her, the products are amazing and your spoilt for choice when you go into the shop, well worth a visit. You won't be disappointed. If your looking for a gift for yourself or someone else the product and the packaging will certainly impress.
