Cuningar Loop’s outdoor bouldering area is a brilliant spot just outside Glasgow. The concrete blocs are well built with a great mix of routes for all levels, from fun beginner slabs to powerful overhangs that really test your strength. On a dry day it’s an amazing place to climb, surrounded by trees and the sound of the river. The atmosphere is relaxed, and there’s plenty of space to hang out between climbs. Verdict: a fantastic outdoor bouldering area that’s perfect for a quick session, a sunny weekend, or just getting outside and climbing with friends.

Lovely afternoon. Perfect for dog walks, with plenty to keep kids interested too.

It’s a great park to explore for all ages. Since the recent upgrades it’s even better! Lots of climbing equipment in the play park, which is half sand so remember your bucket & spade!the bouldering rocks, mini (as in very early riders) pump track and nice walks with tarmac paths! The parking is plentiful and I’m sure it’s very reachable by public transport.

I'm giving it 5 as my grandson loved it. However, snacks, ice-cream and merchandise were a total rip off. Families struggle to take their kids to these events, without being ripped off. Spoils the experience.

We went to the Lost world with our 2 grandchildren was a brilliant day out the kids loved it lovely walks outwith the dinosaurs and plenty things to do with kids like the climbing walls, bike/skate track and park. We were there for 3 hours but could have spent much longer there. Nice clean toilets and a bothy to get food. Highly recommend the lost world if you have young kids
