MORE of the Kintyre Way has been taken off the road in Saddell.
The long-distance route has been re-directed through Torrisdale Castle,with permission from the landowners,and leads onto Saddell Glen.
John Bakes told the Kintyre Initiative Working Group that this new part of the route would fit in very well with a bunkhouse in the Saddell area.
Long and Winding Way Company Limited,which manages the route is currently looking at the possibility of changing the finish point of the route from Southend to Campbeltown.
This could work in the favour of many,encouraging walkers to stay in Southend an extra night as they complete the walk the next day rather than heading straight back to Campbeltown to go home.
The Long and Winding Way Company has also taken on producing an updated leaflet of the Kintyre Trail.
The Kintyre Trail starts off in Tarbert and takes people on a tour round the area to try and encourage more people to visit Kintyre.
