The Kintyre Trail in Scotland offers hikers beautiful scenery that inspired Sir Paul McCartney's hit song "Mull of Kintyre". Kintyre is a remote peninsula on Scotland's west coast connected to the mainland by a narrow isthmus. It has hills, lochs, forests, beaches, and seafood but also features palm trees unaffected by heavy rainfall, expensive eagles, a renowned golf course on the Atlantic Ocean, and sites relating to early Celtic culture. Those interested in learning more about what draws visitors to Kintyre can explore its trails and landscapes virtually or by visiting.

3. Join us on the Kintyre Trail and find out what so captivated Sir Paul
McCartney that he wrote one of the world’s best selling hit songs, ‘Mull of
Kintyre’ about the area.
Kintyre is on the extreme west coast of Scotland, joined to the mainland
by a narrow isthmus at Tarbert and has all the characteristics of island
living without the hassle and expense of ferry crossings (though you can
come by ferry as well.)
The peninsula is about forty miles long and contains within it everything
which makes Scotland such an attractive holiday destination. Here you
will find the hills, lochs, rivers, forests, seascapes, sandy beaches, history
and archaeology and the sea food which have made Scotland so famous,
but with the addition of those ‘little extras’ which make us almost unique;
the palm trees showing the effect of the Gulf Stream, the low rainfall ( less
than 40% of the rest of the west of Scotland), the most expensive eagles
in the world, the absence of cars( our one traffic warden is the last
example of an endangered species), a world class golf course on the
shores of the Atlantic Ocean featuring the ‘best first hole in the world’, a
land which is the very cradle of Celtic Scotland, and ………….
But why not take a quick cyber – trek around the Kintyre Trail and find out
for yourself?
