Inveraray Castle and Loch Fyne Walk
Inveraray, Argyll and Bute
This walk from the elegant town of Inveraray follows the shore of Loch Fyne, Scotland's longest sea loch, and explores the grounds around Inveraray Castle. The combination of lochside walking, woodland and the fairy-tale castle creates a quintessentially Scottish experience.
The route follows the loch shore through mixed woodland and parkland with views across the water to the hills beyond. The castle grounds have well-maintained paths through mature woodland. The town of Inveraray itself is a planned 18th-century town with whitewashed buildings and a charming waterfront.
Dogs are welcome on the lochside path and in the castle grounds. The walk can be extended along the loch in either direction for those wanting a longer outing.
