Walkers should seek out the newly opened Cowal Way; a long-distance walk running from Portavadie to Arrochar and closer to home is the beautiful Puck’s Glen, a stunning gorge with breath taking green scenery and waterfall walks only 10 minutes’ drive as is Ardentinny beach, a magical pace to take a dip in the waters of Loch Long. Explore Argyll’s Secret Coast with its sparkling sea lochs, romantic ruins, ancient forests, and stunning scenery.
This coastal route takes you through some of the most stunning parts of Argyll’s Secret Coast; a magical undiscovered corner of Cowal. A number of public gardens are located in the area, such as Ardkinglas, Crarae and Benmore Botanic Gardens with its avenue of giant Redwood trees.
No visitor to Argyll can leave without seeing the wonderful sight of Puck’s Glen. Here you will be immersed in the sound of running water as you walk upwards to the top of the gorge. Waterfalls gush down as you navigate the path and bridges across the river. Mosses, ferns, and wild flora encompass the surrounding rocks. Gargantuan trees loom down at you from above, and crystal clear pools invite you to take time to be still and just look. It truly is awe inspiring. Puck’s Glen is a few miles by car from Blairmore and is approximately a mile from Benmore Botanic Gardens.
If you would like some more energetic activity with your family, then Quadmania may be for you. There are three golf courses available locally and many opportunities for a spot of fishing. At Colintraive there is a short ferry crossing over to the picturesque Isle of Bute and a visit to the fabulous Victorian Gothic Mount Stuart House is a must. Tighnabruaich has a RYA sailing school and a selection of small shops. Inveraray is also a great day out with the Castle, the ancestral home of the Duke of Argyll and the 19th century Inveraray Jail, both well worth a visit.
