Explore the Glen Kiln
Location: Sandbank, Scotland
Escape to the Argyll Forest Park for a rewarding run around Glen Kiln, starting from a small car parking area near Sandbank.

The steady climbs and descents on well-maintained forestry roads are perfect for building endurance and strength.
As you navigate the undulating course, you'll be treated to expansive views across the Holy Loch and towards Dunoon, with the tranquil landscapes of Glenkin providing a scenic backdrop. This run is ideal for those seeking a longer training session, providing regular runners with a solid effort amidst beautiful Scottish scenery. It’s a fantastic way to immerse yourself in nature while pushing your limits.
