The route from Kilmorie/Kilbride to Strachur is very straightforward. If you start at Kilmorie it's a simple case of following the B8000 and A886 all the way up to Strachur, then turning right onto the A815, and left again into the Clachan of Strachur where Kilmaglash Church can be found. The roads are usually pretty quiet, making it perfect for cycling.
For pilgrims travelling on foot, there's the option to head up to Kilbride (following our Kilmorie - Kilbride Loop guide) and opening the loop out to come back down to the road near Strathlachlan Church. There's also a pleasant option of taking a diversion off the B8000 to walk through the beautiful wee village of Newton.
