Walking around Gartnavel Hospital's open spaces

There are walking trails within the grounds of Gartnavel Hospital which provide access to a beautiful walled garden, wooded area and the wildlife haven of Bingham's Pond. This offers opportunities to relax and observe nature.

There is a hill within the grounds where you can get a view over Glasgow and the railway line. There are designated paths which are suitable for walking and jogging.

Open space for events

Over the last three years, there has been significant support for the development of outdoor facilities at Gartnavel Hospital. There is an specific area for gardening with beds for growing vegetables and flowers which is supported by the NHS, Forestry Commission and Scottish Government. 

Regular weekly 30-minute walk to take part in.
