Crinan Canal - dummy lock towpath access

Pedestrian access across the dummy lock on the Crinan Basin is currently restricted to allow monitoring of the structure. 

Our team are arranging for a new detailed survey to assess whether there has been further deterioration in the structure and whether intervention is necessary. 

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.  Access is available over the gates at lock 14, as signed on the ground.  The aerial photo below shows routes in green for accessing the towpath from the Crinan Hotel, the Coffee Shop, and the basin car park.
