Head for this quiet area of forest near Newton Stewart for great views. Unmarked forest trails link up to the white Larg Hill Trail, allowing for a welcome diversion for coffee and cake at Kirroughtree Forest Café.
The wide forest roads here make this an ideal place for horse-riding. There's room in the car park for a couple of horse boxes.
The nearest public toilets by car are in Newton Stewart. You’ll also find toilets (including accessible facilities) at the Kirroughtree Forest Café.
