Wemyss Bay to Largs (Renfrewshire)

45 minutes direct from Lochwinnoch.

Recommended: Wonderful views out across the Firth of Clyde to the islands and the Cowal Peninsula.

Wemyss Bay has one of the most beautiful railway stations in the country.

Lunch: No facilities along the way (other than a bus stop north of Skelmorlie Bridge); cafe and toilets at Wemyss Bay and plenty at Largs.

Walk details: Slow Ways.

Reverse direction: Railwalks.
