Kilpatrick Hills, Hill chain in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland
The Kilpatrick Hills extend from Dumbarton to Strathblane, featuring peaks like Duncolm reaching heights of 401 meters above sea level.
These hills contain volcanic formations from the Clyde Plateau Lavas, dating back approximately 340 million years with substantial geological modifications through glaciation periods.
Multiple Bronze Age chambered cairns and ancient cup and ring marks discovered on rock outcrops indicate early human settlements in these hills.
The hills provide numerous walking and cycling trails accessible from nearby towns including Balloch, Dumbarton, Milton, and Bowling via public transportation.
The formation known as The Whangie presents a deep natural chasm created through geological processes, offering an exceptional example of glacial plucking.
