Mugdock Country Park
Mugdock Country Park is one of Scotland’s most popular tourist attractions boasting more than 600,000 visitors every year. Once home of the noble Grahams and more notably James Graham Marquis of Montrose, the park is situated just 10 miles north or Glasgow and only a 45 minute drive from Loch Lomond. The park’s boundary spans both Stirling and East Dunbartonshire and enjoys spectacular views of the Campsie Fells. A great day out for all the family every day of the year.
About the park
Mugdock Country Park offers an exciting visit to the countryside. Once home of the ‘noble Grahams’ for many centuries, these lands have many great stories to tell.
The Ranger Service is based at Mugdock Country Park. They lead outdoor learning and environmental activities in the Park’s 260 hectares and also throughout the whole of East Dunbartonshire and Stirling.
Mugdock is steeped in history with buildings dating back to the late 1300s. The park’s visitor centre nestles within the area’s Victorian estate and offers visitors a great opportunity to discover more about our semi-natural countryside and built heritage.
