Park information

Linn Park is the second largest park in the city has a variety of activities.

The northern reaches of the park are historically interesting containing the old Snuffmill Bridge and the remains of Cathcart Castle.

The park has an outstanding diversity of wildlife, habitat and plant life. Ranging from open grassland, scrub land, deciduous and coniferous woodland to the riverbank environment. The diversity of fauna and flora within the park is truly outstanding given the relatively close proximity to the hustle and bustle of the city Centre. The park also boasts an 18 hole golf course with stunning views over Glasgow.

People and Dog Friendly Park

A restricted / fenced off area where dogs can be let-off their leads and allowed to exercise with their owners would be much appreciated by those who use the park and are fearful of dogs.

This is particularly so as, increasingly, the number of dogs (disciplined and non disciplined) are being let-off their leads in communal park areas, run free and, in a significant number of cases, cause distress to non-dog lovers and mothers with small children.

The by-laws pertaining to park behaviours stipulate that dogs should be on leads; this needs to be monitored and addressed before the park becomes a no-go area for non dog lovers.
