Monreith to Sandhead via Port William, Auchenmalg Bay, Glenluce, Luce Sands.
Brief beach walk before 11 miles alongside the A747 to Auchenmalg Bay. Up over a hil for a brief 3 mile coast path before returning to the road and 7 miles of A75 / B7084 around another MoD range at Luce Sands.
No Marked Trail
Mainly road walking with a brief hour of pleasure with a coast path from Auchenmalg Bay. Dumfries and Galloway undersells itself often with a lack of coast access. At least the B7084 section at the end of the day wasn't too busy or dangerous.
My Rank: *
