I know that Tighnabruiach isn't quite in Kintyre, but hope you can forgive me that as it is only 5/10 minutes away once you get off the Portavadie ferry! Fantastic community owned forest project, run by a really hard working group of volunteers and staff which always has a great buzz around it and cracking views as well
