The town is also closely associated with The Gralloch, one of the UK's leading gravel cycling events, which attracts competitors and visitors from across the country and has helped establish the area as a recognised cycling destination.
The town lies within the internationally renowned Galloway Forest Dark Sky Park, one of Europe's largest protected dark sky areas, where exceptional stargazing can be enjoyed throughout the year.
