Hiking

This medieval castle was built on a grand scale, high above the River Clyde, in the late 1200s. The castle was hotly fought over during the Wars of Independence between Scotland and England, changing hands many times. These days, it is an interesting ruin to explore. Entry costs £3 for adults, £1.80 for children aged 5-15, and £2.40 for concessions.
