Help connect Cambuslang

Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.

Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.

Give a hike and help get a for every one of Cambuslang’s Slow Ways.

Much of it is beside busy dual carriageway, which has to be crossed a couple of times - worth using the controlled crossings. Lovely stretch through Kirkhill golf course with views over the city....

The route might have been varied a little by making use of paths running parallel to the main road as it leaves Rutherglen...

There is then a section along the quiet Northbank Avenue with some lovely post-war “Swedish houses” before Westburn Road is rejoined. On crossing this road, the route enters woodland and runs parallel to the road for a while before striking off through attractive farmland scenery to reach the footbridge over the Clyde to Uddingston....
