West Loch Shores is central to many fantastic sections of walking including the Kintyre Way walk which zig-zags across Kintyre from Tarbert to Southend.
Only minutes away is the village of Tarbert and access to walks that pass around the glen and also across to Skipness. There are walks inland all throughout Kintyre and Argyll.
The forestry commission take an active part in tourism creating walks through the land that they maintain and through the diverse forest plantations that they are responsible for planting.
West Loch Shores Tarbert has access directly to woodland at the head of the lodge site, and there is access to forestry walks only minutes in either direction by car.
From West Loch Shores Brenfield if you head northwards and head towards Cairnbaan but follow the road a few miles further towards Oban there is access to walks here, or if you continue a few more miles there are yet more forestry walks or Kilmartin Glen and Mhine Mhor.
There is plenty of woodland teaming with wildlife, with approximately one third of Kintyre covered in woodland you are always sure to find something of interest and a suitable walk.
