From Ardrishaig to Crinan is just 9 miles, so a great family
cycle ride.
Along the canal
Starting from Ardrishaig, follow the main road for a few hundred
yards and take the turn up to Lock 4. There you have a choice:
cross the bridge and take the surfaced road to Oakfield, or
alternatively take the grass towpath, which leads on to Oakfield
and beyond to Cairnbaan.
From Cairnbaan you may either take the main road or towpath. To
enjoy a relaxing ride with minimum traffic try the towpath, which
will take you all the way to Crinan.
