02 In the picture above we are
looking east. You can see the Mull of Galloway lighthouse in the distance
and also where we parked by East Tarbet Bay. There is a rough road going
down to the quay here but I don't think you are supposed to go down there
to park - though the sign telling you this has been defaced almost beyond
understanding. The OS grid reference is NX143309 for this point. The picture below was taken much later in the day as we made our way back to the car. It shows the view north and the early part of our route towards Portankill on the east shore of the Rhins of Galloway. The route is way-marked for walkers. Notice the mass of whins (gorse) along the north side of the bay and for that matter in several other places on the route as you will see. |
