Short walk with amazing views over Glasgow and the Southern Highlands Please park responsibility and keep dogs on a lead. It is on a working farm

Nice walk up through woods and along dam. Too windy to go up hill. Lack of enough parking places.

The Craigie is a local hill with a fishery below and woods close by. It is in the Barrhead area near Glasgow. The hill is steep is steep in parts, and best climbed from walking around it to the back. Look out for cows grazing at the field past the steel bridge.
