Ardkinglas Estate is a hidden gem on the paths of Loch Fyne. Families will love exploring the woodland, finding fairy houses, following the map to find the Gruffalo at the end of the trail and playing down by the river.

Jupiter Artland
Jupiter Artland is a great day out for families. Play on the sculpted hills, visit the donkeys, wander round the beautiful woodlands. Brilliant fun for everyone.

Dumfries House
Dumfries House is a hidden gem in South Ayrshire. The grounds are beautiful, the water play area is brilliant. A great day out and best of all it’s free.

Loudoun Hill
Loudon Hill is a great family friendly hill walk in East Ayrshire. It’s a quick walk even with kids and the views from the top are beautiful.

Chatelherault Country Park
Chatelherault Country Park has a great playpark, nice cafe and wonderful walks through a big, ancient woodland. It has lots of wheel friendly paths and so many different routes for families to explore. It’s a great park and one of our favourites.

Castle Campbell & Dollar Glen
Dollar Glen is a stunning walk through a beautiful wooded gorge and is a wonderful place for a day trip. Castle Campbell is a very picturesque castle too and it’s well worth the walk there!

An Lochan Uaine
The walk to An Lochan Uaine is a great walk in Aviemore for families and for young kids. A beautiful and magical place, without much effort getting there!

The Kelpies & Helix Park
This is one of my favourite places for a walk and a play. It’s outdoors, it’s free, and the Kelpies themselves are just beautiful. The playpark is fantastic and it’s a totally wheel friendly place.

Machrie Moor
This is one of my favourite walks on Arran for families, and not too strenuous for anyone. The Machrie Moor standing stones are beautiful and impressive and honestly, a little bit magical. Highly recommend.

Conic Hill
Conic Hill has truly beautiful views overlooking Loch Lomond. It is tricky for little legs towards the top with the loose stones, but it’s a great few hours out and the views make it well worth the trip.
