01 This is an easy walk of around 9 kilometers starting from the harbour in Portpatrick (NW996542). It goes up through the town, turning left at the outskirts onto the Leswalt road and then left again when you come to the road that goes down to Killantringan lighthouse. All this is on public road. Thereafter you follow the path of the Southern Upland Way back to Portpatrick. Some parts around Port Kale and Port Mora involve a little scrambling through rocks but chains have been put here to help you up or down the tricky bits. You could walk just from Portpatrick to the lighthouse - or park at the lighthouse and walk the other way if you want a short walk. There is a tearoom at Dunskey House and a path down Dunskey Glen which offer further possibilities. Portpatrick itself offers a good choice of places to eat and drink.
