Bargane Hill, located in Renfrewshire, Scotland, is a prominent hill that offers stunning views and is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts. With an elevation of approximately 209 meters (686 feet), it is not considered a mountain but rather a hill.

Situated near the village of Kilbarchan, Bargane Hill is easily accessible and attracts visitors from both locals and tourists. The hill is covered in lush greenery, featuring a mix of grasslands, heather, and scattered trees, creating a picturesque landscape. Its gentle slopes make it an ideal spot for walking, hiking, and even picnicking.

The summit of Bargane Hill provides breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, including the Renfrewshire hills and the Clyde Valley. On a clear day, visitors may also catch a glimpse of the distant Ben Lomond, a famous mountain located in the Trossachs National Park.

Bargane Hill has historical significance as well. It is believed to have been a site of ancient settlements, with remnants of iron age forts and burial mounds found in the vicinity. These archaeological findings contribute to the hill's cultural and historical value.

Overall, Bargane Hill offers a delightful experience for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike. Its accessibility, natural beauty, and historical significance make it a must-visit destination in Renfrewshire.

Inverkip Road (A78) The A78 runs for 42 miles between Greenock and Prestwick. For much of its route, it follows the northern section of the Ayrshire coast. Although it is classified as a primary road throughout its length, the standard varies. Much of the road is single carriageway, both for a short distance through Greenock and a 21-mile stretch between Inverkip and Ardrossan. The rest is dual carriageway; between the Eglinton and Warrix interchanges there are in fact 3 lanes in each direction, and the road is constructed to motorway standard (with full grade separation at junctions) except for a lack of hard shoulders.
