Kilmartin House Museum, a church manse turned archaeological museum, is great place to begin a tour of Kilmartin Glen. Discover the history of Kilmartin. Learn about prehistoric monuments. Have lunch at the café. View the 15-minute audiovisual before setting out on a search for centuries-old burial cairns, standing stones, stone circles and rock art and turn a walk in the green into a hike through history.

Without a bit of knowledge, it's hard to grasp the significance of ancient stones. The small Kilmartin House Museum helps fill that gap. The 15-minute audiovisual is excellent as are the exhibits. The hands-on activities are a hit with children. The food at the neighboring Glebe Cairn Café is first-rate.
