Enjoy! CYCLING IN STEWARTRY This booklet is one of a series of four covering the whole of Dumfries & Galloway that suggest a variety of cycle tours for visitors and locals of all abilities. Local cycling enthusiasts, using their knowledge of the quieter roads, cycle routes and byways, have researched the routes to provide an interesting and rewarding taste of the region. A note of distance, time, terrain and facilities is given at the start of each route. All start points offer parking, toilets, snack places and accommodation. Some routes include stretches off-tarmac and this is indicated at the start of the route. Parking discs are required for some car parks and these are available at Tourist Information Centres and in local shops. Stewartry is part of the old province of Galloway. In those centuries when the easiest way to travel any distance was by sea, it held a strategic place on the west coast, Irish and Isle of Man routes. This explains the many archaeological remains near the coast.

  • 3 Landscape of the Galloway Glens

    3 Landscape of the Galloway Glens

    3.1 What is ‘Landscape’? 3.1.1 Not just the visual The Galloway Glens Landscape Partnership Scheme (‘the Scheme’) has taken the opportunity to look at ‘landscape’ in its broadest possible sense. How do you define a landscape? It includes immediately obvious features such as the physical contours of the land, land use and settlement patterns, but also the more intanGible elements of an area: an understandinG of how it makes people feel, the influence of historical events, folk stories and mytholoGy and an acknowledGment of the challenGes and conflicts that miGht be runninG just beneath the surface – whether they be between humans, nature or any combination of these. This approach allows us to present not just a contemporary picture, but looks back to the past and into the future. 3.1.2 Definition The Scheme’s approach to landscape is consistent with the definition adopted by the European Landscape Convention (ELC): “An area, as perceived by people, whose character is the result of the action and interaction of natural and/or human factors.” 3.2 A Bird’s Eye View CLATTERINGSHAWS c. Stuart Littlewood Lying in South West Scotland, the Ken-Dee catchment is over 1050km2. It is bordered to the east by the River Urr and to the west by the River Fleet. From the summit of Cairnsmore of Carsphairn in the 16 north, the view stretches all the way down the valley towards KirkcudbriGht and the Solway Firth. On a clear day the Cumbrian hills and the Isle of Man are visible in the distance. Near the villaGe of Parton, the Water of Ken and the Black Water of Dee combine, takinG the ‘River Dee’ name and flowing down by Castle Douglas and then out to sea at KirkcudbriGht.
