    CYCLING in and around Stewartry The natural place to cycle See also:- - Cycling Signposted Routes in Dumfries and Galloway - Sustrans Maps www.sustrans.org.uk - The National Byway Map www.thenationalbyway.org.uk Particular thanks to John Taylor CTC for route and text contributions and for photographs. Photographs also by Alan Devlin and Dumfries and Galloway Tourist Board This publication has been, designed and funded by a partnership of: Supported by Solway Heritage through the Landfill Tax Credit Scheme A Message from the Health Improvement Group Cycling can seriously improve your health & happiness. 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.

  • Walking in and Around Dalbeattie and Colvend
    1 WALKING in and around Dalbeattie & Colvend The natural place to walk 3 3 Kippford The Dalbeattie and Colvend area is one of the most beautiful and diverse in Dumfries & Galloway with scenery ranging from forest to woodland and from saltmarsh to rocky coast. The area is also home to the town of Dalbeattie, the picturesque coastal villages of Rockcliffe and Kippford, and the popular Sandyhills beach. The variety of habitats support an abundance of wildlife. Red squirrels are a common sight, colourful dragonflies skim the surface of lochs and birdlife abounds. Look out for sparrowhawks, peregrine falcon perching on rocky outcrops and the many waders such as oystercatcher feeding on the mudflats. The area is particularly renowned for its rich diversity of butterfly species including the small copper, pearl bordered fritillary and purple hairstreak. Plant highlights include the shimmering carpets of bluebells in May and the tapestries of tiny coastal flowers such as English stonecrop and birds foot trefoil during June and July. Those interested in archaeology can visit the Iron Age fort sites of Mote of Mark and Castle Point on the coast near Rockcliffe. The town of Dalbeattie provides a good range of services and Rockcliffe has been a choice holiday village since Victorian times. 4 5 THE WALKS Wick Dumfries A 7 1 A 3 A75 7 1 6 Rounall Wood ...........................................8 2 Inverness 1 1 Aberdeen 7 A 2 Dalbeattie Forest Easy Access Trail A 74 5 Castle (and other waymarked routes).............10 DALBEATTIE 0 1 7 Edinburgh Douglas
