Townhill Loch Country Park - Dunfermline Walks
This country park is located in Dunfermline and is very popular with water-skiers.
However there are also walking trails alongside Town Loch and a cycle trail on the eastern edge of the park. The loch is surrounded by some really pretty countryside and there are also facilities such as a children's play area and a croquet lawn.
Just a couple of miles north east of the park there's some more peaceful lochside trails along Loch Fitty.

Further Information and Other Local Ideas
To continue your walking around Dunfermline head west of the town centre to Pittencrieff Park. The park includes a rugged glen which is an area of topographical and historical significance to the town as the original site of Malcolm's Tower, the probable remains of which can be identified today on a strongly defendable outcrop of rock. To the eastern side of the park is Dunfermline Palace with Dunfermline Abbey and to the west it overlooks the village of Crossford. The park houses an aviary which is home to 9 resident peacocks. It is also the site of the town park run. You can find it at postcode KY12 8QH.
