Carnfunnock Country Park Circular Walk Description
If you are looking for a walking route that is easy enough for the entire family to complete but still features enough interesting elements to keep everyone entertained, then you should definitely give the Carnfunnock Country Park Circular Walk a try.
Setting out from the trailhead, you will head to the south and make your way through the forest, following the path as it bends around the golf course towards the Carnfunnock Family Fun Zone.

After passing by the fun zone, follow the path as it turns to the north and runs parallel to the coast, before turning to the northwest.
