The pathways were constructed in the 1870s by James Duncan, a wealthy Greenock sugar merchant and owner of the Benmore Estate, who designed the route to impress guests with the dramatic scenery. In 1889, the estate was purchased by the Younger family, of the famous brewing dynasty. In 1924, Harry George Younger gifted the estate to the nation.
