    Linn Park Waterfall is a beautiful waterfall surrounded by beautiful trees 🌳 🌲. Lovely autumn πŸ‚ weather. Scenery was amazing, beautiful and eye catching. We really enjoyed our visit in the nature wonderland.

    One of my favourite parks for the dog. Lots of wooded areas and parts with water to go with expansive green open space. Various entrances although I prefer the one at the golf club which gives you a choice of walks. Only downside is that there are no facilities if you wanted a drink or the toilet but never been an issue.

    This is a fantastic park in the South Side of Glasgow. 5 star for dogs. Trees, grass, water, hills, mud the lot. Great and lovely walks and you can easily walk for an hour before hitting the end of the park. No coffee shops or toilets in the park. Not bad for kids but just missing the real adventure playground it needs. There are a couple of small play areas for young kids. One near the Cathcart end. Second one in the centre next to the horse riding centre. Very scenic through the seasons.

    Absolutely stunning park! The warm weather made it even better, there is something for everyone and the kids will love the little forest trail and the sand park. If you are lucky you can get to see the horses as well, and the little hills just keep you on an interesting pace!

  • 5/5 Alexander B. 2 years ago on Google
    A beautiful park which is brilliant for dog walking albeit I recommend keeping them on the lead for the first few visits. There are many spots for a seat and a picnic off the main track and there is also access to the river and waterfall. It's a good hours walk going at a leisurely pace with lovely views on the park loop. Easily one of my favourite parks in Glasgow. Thourough recommend a visit.

    Very Serene and huge park. If you like to spend a sunny afternoon under a tree or by water... Reading a book, hear birds chrip.. you must visit here. P.S. if the maintenance work is still on, you might have to take a detour to the park entrance. But it would be worth it.

    Absolutely stunning park, with a huge amount of green space. Love the waterfall. Plenty of kids were playing in it when I was there last year. We were lucky enough to find a wee fairy trail in the woods too.

    It was a sunny, winter afternoon & I loved the stroll around the park. The waterfall is a must see if you visit the park. And what's nice is you can choose your walking trail based on your time availability, physical fitness and/ preferences etc. - there's so many trail options to choose from!

    The Magnificent Eleven is an 11-mile circular walk that explores some of Glasgow’s green spaces and wildlife as no other. The route is split into four almost equal sections. Each one has ready access at the beginning and end, with a nearby bus link. Full details including maps of the route through our β€˜living city’ are available on theΒ Ramblers website.

    Lovely green space, lots of trees and a great place to ramble with youngsters. Make sure you have decent footwear especially after rain as some paths can be a bit muddy, a few small play parks located in this area.

    This is one of my favourite places in Glasgow, it's so nice to walk the dog around, well looked after and down by the waterfall is beautiful

  • 5/5 JR R. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely walk in my local park , Linn Park , several different entrances throughout all corners of the park. Friendly folk and plenty of woodlans walks off the paths , Snuff Mill Bridge and the Old Mill as well as Courte Knowe are worth seeing

  • 4/5 Niki M. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice park, rather nice waterfall, some lovely big Beech trees. Part of the river walk down to a bridge was shut off so we had to double back, that wasn't ideal, hopefully they can sort out whatever needs sorted there sooner rather than later and reopen the full riverside path to the public so we can walk down one side, cross the bridge and come back on the other.

  • 5/5 Esoterica 2 years ago on Google
    Linn Park makes you feel as though you're in the countryside right in the city. I love taking my dog here, and it's easily become my favourite place to go mushroom hunting. Not only that, but wild garlic grows during the nicer months and gives the place a delicious smell.

  • 5/5 Kamil A. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing park, not so many people. Definitely recommend ?

  • 5/5 J B. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Ray M. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the most beautiful parks in Glasgow. I’ve been coming here for over 40 years. Close your eyes and imagine you’re deep in the forest miles from the city. … highly recommended

  • 1/5 Kieron C. 3 years ago on Google
    full of litter, wont be going back any time soon

  • 4/5 Andrew H. 1 year ago on Google
    Went down to Linn Park a couple of times during the really hot weather. It was excellent for my dog. He loved going in the river and there were plenty of shaded walks.

  • 5/5 Mark R. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful park to get some fresh air and increase your step count. Avoid if you don't like dogs or you want somewhere flat to walk.

  • 5/5 Jennifer M. 11 months ago on Google
    Beautiful park. Lovely walks and areas for dogs and people alike.

  • 5/5 Terry M. 11 months ago on Google
    Great walk around with variety. Hard to beat places with a river running through. I need to go back sometime soon in the good weather.

  • 5/5 Abadi S. 3 years ago on Google
    One of the must beautiful parks I’ve ever visited inside Glasgow. Enjoy seeing the waterfall and the beautiful green forest. Don’t forget to say hi to the horses!

  • 5/5 Gary E. 3 years ago on Google
    Great walk around the park

  • 4/5 Tasmin R. 3 years ago on Google
    Love it here for dogs off lead but don't go when it's hot or sunny outside as there's picnics galore and people who don't like dogs having fun. Best access for dogs is if you park at the golf club car park. Sometimes horses walk through the park at lunchtime so be careful!

  • 5/5 germain d. 3 years ago on Google
    great golf course

  • 4/5 Chris M. 3 years ago on Google
    Good park, excellent size and some really good facilities, golf course etc. Sadly lacking in terms of kids play area which could do with investment and upgrade. Excellent for a long walk

    Expansive Park with great nature trails, can get busy with good weather but the waterfall and river walks are great

  • 4/5 Emmanuel G. 3 years ago on Google
    Big, nice but in need of some renovating.

  • 4/5 Brian T. 3 years ago on Google
    It's a lush, green place that can absorb a fair number of people without it feeling in any way overcrowded. Great for experiencing a countryside vibe in the suburbs.

  • 5/5 Caroline O. 3 years ago on Google

    Large park, clean and well kept, with lots of different "zones", from wild flower meadows, curated green lawns, copse walks and river bank rests.

    Great walk

  • 4/5 Leeann P. 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely big park and plenty to explore.

  • 4/5 moroko8 3 years ago on Google
    Good woodland walks, and White cart water walk is just the thing - lovely with shaded trees and multiple of cute woodland animals darting harmlessly about. Snuff mill bridge is a wonderful spot. Some expansive places to sit and sunbathe or have a kick about. Lots of the park is covered by buttercupped wild grass, though some essential areas are mowed. Not an overly accomplished park, but some significantly nice features as above

  • 4/5 Kokotxas 3 years ago on Google
    Similar to Rouken Glen, nature trails along riverside with plenty of nooks and crannies for the more adventurous. Many paths rudimentary, and widths mean having to rely on cyclist manners.Parking a possible issue, primary school car park at Netherlee safest bet

  • 5/5 Pawel R. 3 years ago on Google
    Almost like forest ;)

  • 5/5 John L. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 William K. 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely

  • 4/5 Stewart G. 3 years ago on Google
    Small park has a river, wildlife and playpark. Has some historical buildings near entrance. More of a local park than a journey park

  • 5/5 Miguel L. 3 years ago on Google
    Gorgeous gorges, waterfall...lovely Open meadows and lovely woodland trails including by a River. This Park has it all except somewhere thats flat.!

    Very friendly environment and a lot's of places to visit. There is waterfall and Riverside where you can sit with your family and enjoying the cooling off environment.

  • 4/5 Jennifer M. 3 years ago on Google
    Great park for walking the dog, horse riding or taking the kids on adventures through the woods or to the sand park. The park does lack though in the park area as it's very small but in saying that it is nice.

  • 5/5 James 7. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing Woodlands and walkways perfect any weather
