Description:

 A short, uphill walk from Boat o'Rhone car park up to the viewpoint above Parton. Join the RSPB to see and learn about the red kites in Galloway and enjoy impressive views over Loch Ken and River Dee, stretching as far south to the Lake District and north to the Southern Uplands. There is a Scavenger Hunt for kids. Kites often fly overhead, so bring binoculars if you have some and come prepared for the outdoors.
