One of the few wetlands left in the west of Scotland. Three flat, partly signposted trails (two 400m and one 1.5km all-access trail) with bird hides, plus a natural play area with a tyre swing, den building and a short fairy trail. Self-led kids' activities run seasonally. Refreshments from the visitor centre shop, picnic benches, and an accessible toilet with baby changing. Dogs welcome on a lead. Trails can flood after heavy rain. Lochwinnoch station is close by.
