Overview

Train to Lochwinnoch at 9.45, arrives at Howood 10.04. This allows us to finish the walk at a reasonable time as next train is an hour later.  This walk will start at Howwood and finish at Lochwinnoch, so return ticket to Lochwinnoch is required. Taking in the loch and Parkhill Wood loop, then Kenmure Hill. 

Should anyone wish to travel by car, meet the train at Howwood at 10.04. There is ample parking at station and nearby. The train can be used to return from Lochwinnoch to Howwood after the walk. Please advise Terry if you intend to do this.
