Following the wildfire, Glenmore Forest Park is now open. However, some areas, trails and car parks remain closed while we work to make them safe. 

During your visit pay attention to local signage and to our staff. Check local updates on our forest web pages before visiting.

Start your hillwalk up The Arrochar Alps

The mountains clustered around the head of Loch Long are known as The Arrochar Alps. They are renowned among Glasgow hillwalkers. The car park here is the starting point for long, tough walks that climb through the forest up to the triple fangs of The Cobbler or to the Munro tops of Beinn Narnain and Beinn Ime.

The waymarked trail around Glen Loin is along wider paths and forest tracks, with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains.. However, at 11 miles it's still a long day out.
