Big Tree Walk, Black Gates
Big Tree Walk, Black Gates
The Big Tree Walk at Black Gates is a short, easy woodland stroll near Dunoon, taking in some notably large specimen trees along the way. At around 2km and Grade 1, it's a gentle 45-minute outing suitable for most fitness levels.
It's a good option for a quick dose of fresh air and forest scenery without committing to a longer hike, and works well combined with other short walks in the Cowal area.
