Kintyre Way

Kintyre Way

The remote Kintyre peninsula on the West Coast of Scotland is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. What better way to discover the ruined castles, rich wildlife, fabulous local seafood, welcoming hotels and magnificent scenery than on foot.

The Kintyre Way is a magnificent peninsula that feels more island than mainland. This 89 mile self-guided walking holiday allows you to explore the quiet and hidden places, small local fishing villages, the crashing Atlantic waves and the rich wildlife (including otters, seals, seabirds and perhaps a basking shark) of the Kintyre Peninsula.

Every holiday we offer features hand-picked overnight accommodation in high quality B&B’s, country inns, and guesthouses. Each is unique and offers the highest levels of welcome, atmosphere and outstanding local cuisine. We also include daily door to door baggage transfers, guidebook with detailed map and pre-departure information pack as well as emergency support, should you need it.

Highlights:

  • Spotting your first otter foraging in cold clear waters of Loch Fyne.
  • Enjoying the bracing sea air as you stride along the white sands of Machrihanish Beach while the Atlantic rolls in.
  • Feasting on world renowned langoustines, oysters and mussels pulled fresh from the sea that day.
  • Sampling the treats of Campbeltown’s Famous Whisky Distilleries
  • Watching the sun slide into the mountains of Jura at the end of a rewarding days walking.
  • Meeting the genuine, friendly people of this remote and distinctly relaxed, forgotten corner of Scotland.

Is it for me?: Getting out to the Kintyre Peninsula is a great experience and one which you will not find anywhere else in Britain. Rugged coastline, views out over Islay and Jura and seafood to die for all make this relatively new long distance walk a classic in the making.
