There are fantastic opportunities to go hillwalking in the Kilpatrick Hills and in the hills west of the Vale of Leven. The West Dunbartonshire Core Paths Plan shows many routes available for walking throughout the area.
We have produced a map showing eight popular routes from Dumbarton.
We also manage several woodlands and one country park which can be used for walking. When walking in the countryside please follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
The John Muir Way Coast to Coast route crosses West Dunbartonshire, and the Three Lochs Way route starts in Balloch.
