Rouken Glen park, Giffnock, Renfrewshire M77/3

Description

This is a fabulous park and a wonderful place to escape the stress and strain of everyday life. From open spaces to woodland rambles, there's plenty of things for dogs to do.

The waterfall is worth the visit alone. According to local legend, William Wallace used to sit here to contemplate life and the English.

Walks

Rouken Glen Park is a gorgeous place to visit and has much to offer the visiting dog. There's a network of paths to follow called the Glen Walks which allows the visitor to ramble about to their hearts' content. Maybe the best area to walk is through the mature woodland where you'll find the beautiful waterfall. It's a perfect place for a relaxing stroll.

There are also wide areas of grass for those who do not want to walk too far.
