How to get to Knockmountain

The start point is the car park just off Leperstone Ave in Kilmacolm, to the South of Knockmountain.

Once you park, make your way North, there are many routes to follow form a short loop walk to a very long walk that reaches a cairn.  The cairn (the highest point) is located near Langbank and to the far north of the walk and well worth a visit for the views.

Knockmountain is a fantastic place to walk and ideal for those with dogs. It’s enormous, dog friendly, and secure with gates and fences. Once you become familiar with it, you will learn all the many different routes it has.

    • Hi Helen, sorry for the late reply, I’ve added a “get directions” button to the post that should take you right to the carpark.

    • Oh cool, glad you liked it Mandy. It’s a lovely place and it’s huge. Loads of different trails takes quite a few walks to get familiar with them all but its a great place.
