The boathouse is about 3 miles from the main campus, situated on the Clyde at Glasgow Green. Walking upstream it's the far end of the furthest boathouse, on the apex of the bend between the blue footbridge and the Road Bridge on Ballater Street. Coming from Ballater Street therefore, it's the first boathouse. It's got lovely black railings with a yellow gate.

A rather crude Google Map is available with some routes and general directions. Hopefully it should make life easier for you. It's available here.


  • Travelling on Foot - will take you about an hour. The easiest route is through the middle of town; Sauchiehall Street, Buchanan Street, Argyll Street.

  • Travelling by Bicycle - the transport of champions. If you're north of Great Western Road, go along it or Maryhill Road to Georges Cross, under the flyover to Charing Cross and down to the river under the M8. South of GWR, come along University Avenue to Argyll Street, along to PC World and down under the ExpressWay and left onto the Broomielaw. Either route its now your choice whether you go on the cycle path or the road, but you're going along next to the river until you get to Glasgow Green.

  • Travelling by Car - you are weak, but it will only take 15 mins unless its rush hour. You need to come over the M8, either from the ExpressWay or Charing Cross and take the exit on the other side to East Kilbride. Actually, you can go along the Broomielaw and hang a right onto Jamaica Street after you've gone under the Railway. From the Motorway exit its a left turn and over two sets of lights before the road takes you right. Choose the right hand lanes and you turn right after the Railway, which joins up with the Jamaica street turn. Left at the lights then right and left pretty swiftly and the High rises are on your right hand side and the Mosque on the left. On past the swimming pool, watch for the speed camera and left turn as soon as you're over the bridge.

  • Travelling by Taxi - as a last resort. Ask the nice man to take you to the football centre at Glasgow Green. If he doesn't know that, try Ballater street as it crosses the Clyde.

  • Travelling by Bus - with the Great Unwashed. Best bet is an 18 from Qm Drive or Byres Road, getting off at Bridgeton Cross. DO NOT wear football colours in Bridgeton, it's Apache Land and you'll get scalped.

  • Travelling by Underground - but it doesn't start til 10 on a sunday. Get off at St Enoch. Walk straight ahead to the river. Turn left. Keep walking to the boathouse.
