Inveraray Castle Walks
This fascinating castle sits in a wonderful location near the shores of Loch Fyne in Argyll.
The Gothic Revival castle dates from the 18th century and is surrounded by lovely parkland, woodland and gardens.
This walk takes you across the River Aray and the woodland estate to Dun Na Cuaiche where there's a climb to a folly and a viewpoint. From the old stone tower there's wonderful views down to Inveraray and the loch.
