Overview

This circular route climbs from the streets of Dumbarton through the grounds of Overtoun House to climb up to a view point on Lang Craigs overlooking the Firth of Clyde. We are not going to do the full circuit as per the Walkhighlands description ( https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/glasgow/lang-craigs.shtml ). The plan is to head up to the Lang Craigs to enjoy the views (fingers crossed) and after a wee break we head back down to Dumbarton.
