'Enjoy the chance to go on a peaceful stroll on one of our woodland trails, or if you fancy something a little more strenuous, why not head out to the hills and climb the Merrick, south Scotland's highest peak. With over 100 different walks to choose from, there is something for everyone. More details of all of the Galloway Forest Park walks are available in the Forestry Commission's Out and About Guide to Galloway Forest Park... With 27 waymarked trails to choose from, there is something suited to every walker.'

'Discover the breathtaking scenery and wildlife that's typical of this region. Stroll along the nature trails and use the viewing hides to explore at your own pace ... Coastal trail 2.4 miles and shorter wetland trail 1.2 miles.'

'The area offers a wide range of activities for visitors and locals alike. These range from facilities to help you research your family tree to quiet country roads for walking or cycling, and golf and fishing are both on our doorstep. For the more energetic there is mountain biking, horse-riding and hillwalking.'

'The woodland follows the course of the Balloch Burn from the hills west of Creetown to the Cree Estuary.  Linear in shape, and several kilometres long, it offers a range of walks through a richly varied woodland of Larch, Oak, Scots Pine, Beech, Italian Alder and other species.'

'An exciting nature watching opportunity to view spectacular red kites in lovely scenery is now attracting the attention of walkers, cyclists, wildlife lovers and birdwatchers in Dumfries and Galloway and from much further afield.' ALERT Original Website referenced here inaccessible at Review.
