Kintyre and South Argyll 40 Walks Pocket Guidebook

author: Douglas Milne
Rugged, wild, sparsely populated and gouged by misty sea lochs, South Argyle was once known in Old Gaelic as Airer Goidel, the 'Coast of the Gaels', and remains a place apart. The hills and glens here are steeped in history and littered with standing stones, hillforts, and castles, as well as unique wildlife-rich habitats created by the warming Gulf Stream.

This book explores the very best of Knapdale, Kintyre, and the Cowal coast, as well as the Isles of Gigha and Bute, with walks to suit all abilities, many of which utilise the long-distance walking trails that criss-cross the area. Each walk entry begins with at-a-glance details of distance, time, terrain, parking, and public transport access where available. Clear route-finding instructions are provided together with simple overview coloured sketch maps, but OS Explorer map sheet numbers are also provided. The text also includes brief notes on features of interest along the way and there are colour photographs throughout.

The walks are arranged into five geographical sections:
Knapdale
Kintyre
Isle of Gigha
Isle of Bute
The Cowal Coast
