Kelvin Walkway

The wooded banks and grassy slopes of the River Kelvin have long been admired for their beauty and the idea of a walkway along the river's edge was discussed as long ago as 1890 and again in the 1950s.

Today this walkway is a reality which offers very pleasant and picturesque surroundings. It links Kelvingrove Park with the Botanic Gardens and now connects up with the West Highland Way. It also fonns part of the Glasgow to Milngavie cycle route. One of the most popular sections of the walkway runs through the northern section of the Botanic Gardens.
