Kirkinner to Monreith via Garlieston, Galloway House, Isle of Whithorn, Burrow Head, St Ninian's.
4 miles of road to Garlieston and track to Galloway House with gardens, woodland and small beach. Road and cliff top path to St Ninian's with woodland, farmland and road to end.
No Marked Trail
Road and tracks early go to the front door of Galloway House. Cut through the estate via a small private beach and woodland back up to the lane down to Isle of Whithorn. Proper coast path across cliff tops ends at St Ninian's Cave. Up through woodland to tracks and lanes around deserted farms and cottages. A quiet main road to end the day. Probably my favourite walk in Dumfries and Galloway.
My Rank: ****
