Bothies
Five Bothies are situated within The Galloway Forest Park boundaries. Only a couple of these, however, are maintained by the Ranger Service of the Park.
- Bothies provide basic shelter only.
- Your own supply of water is required in order to stay in any of the five bothies.
- Bothies, due to their remoteness do not have toilet facilities.
- Please leave the bothies how you would like to find them, as there is no cleaning service. The state of the bothy purely relies on the previous users.
- Again, depending on the generosity of the previous occupants, firewood is sometimes available.

In 1965, The Mountain Bothy
Association (MBA) was founded in order to maintain simple unlocked
shelters in remote places throughout the country. See: http://www.mountainbothies.org.uk/
