Cairnhill Woods is a narrow strip of woodland, running north to south for about 800 metres. This path links Henderland Road to Ravelston Road, cutting across the woods, which are about 100 metres wide at this point. The woodland is a mixture of mature trees up to 150 years old and more recent plantings. It is a good site for a variety of wildlife and forms part of an important wildlife corridor through the area. Cairnhill Woods is officially designated a Local Nature Conservation Site (LNCS) by East Dunbartonshire Council.
