More about the Rhins Revealed Online Project

Solway Firth Partnership is currently working in partnership with Dumfries and Galloway Council to deliver a two-year programme of activities as part of the Rhins of Galloway Coast Path Project. This 83-mile walking route around the Rhins peninsula links to the existing network of long-distance routes, and provides opportunities to explore, access and enjoy the spectacular coastline and learn about its rich cultural heritage.

The Rhins Revealed Online Project has been developed to build on the early success of the community archaeology project and overcome the constraints caused by the COVID-19 virus. It aims to use a variety of digital media to add activities that encourage engagement while retaining social distancing.
