Enjoy this pleasant walk around Ardmore Point. It’s a lovely, easy loop on a path that takes you right around the peninsula in the Firth of Clyde. You'll get stunning views across the water to Helensburgh, and it’s a good spot for watching wildlife, so keep your eyes peeled for seabirds like oystercatchers and curlews.
