Dangerous rockfalls and erosion

Route: Isle of Luing and the Slate Quarries

Date walked: 03/02/2024

Distance: 5.5km

:shock: Luing Community Council warns all walkers to avoid the coastal section between Port Mary and Cullipool. Due to significant erosion and recent rockfalls this is too dangerous to walk safely, especially at high tide. There is a much better route, with great views out to the Garvellachs and Colonsay, by following the track inland from Port Mary, taking the first gate to the south, and following the track and then path up to the ridge above Cullipool, then descending behind the old church. It's a well walked track and path so route cannot be missed. A further short detour to the trig point above Cullipool gives even more extensive views.
