The Kintyre Way is a fully waymarked trail that criss-crosses the Kintyre peninsula for 101 miles (162 km). Starting from Tarbert in the north, it visits coastal villages and inland lochs, passing through Campbeltown via Southend to its new terminus of Machrihanish. Our 2023 edition covers changes in both route and facilities, and has six extra pages. The book includes large-scale mapping by Footprint, and has many new photos. Our online route map is the most accurate resource available: zoom repeatedly for incredible detail.
Famous as Scotland’s only ‘mainland island’, Kintyre has rugged coastlines facing west to the Atlantic and east to the Firth of Clyde. You walk past castles, abbeys and prehistoric remains, along beaches, over moorland and climb high on forestry tracks with glorious views over Arran and towards Ireland. You will enjoy many wildlife sightings on this peaceful peninsula.
