 Route Map of Kelvin River Walkway
The
Kelvin Walkway connects Milngavie with
the Glasgow Heliport
on the north bank of the River Clyde. The walkway follows the Allander Water for 2 miles ( 3km ) southeast from Milngavie to join the River Kelvin. The route then turns southwest leaving the Kelvin to head south through Summerston ( - see map below - there are no signposts! ) The walkway rejoins the river on the outskirts of Maryhill and continues south through Kelvinside, Botanic Gardens, Kelvingrove Park and Yorkhill to reach the Clyde. A total distance of some 9 miles ( 14.5km ) is covered.  |

Dawsholm Park consists mainly of policy and plantation woodland and is important for the typical woodland bird species this habitat supports. Grassland to the south is grazed by highland cattle to encourage wild flowers and a pond is home to waterbirds. The northern boundary is the River Kelvin where Kingfishers can be seen. Roe Deer, Red Fox and Grey Squirrel are regularly seen and over 30 species of bird and ten of butterfly have been recorded. |
