 The Pentland Hills - South West Edinburgh

Starting at a small village called Flotterstone on the A702  just south of Edinburgh at the Pentland Hills Ranger Centre take a fine eight hour walk around the Hills. A circular walk taking in Turnhouse and Carnethy Hills, Scald Law and a low level walk along the Loganlea and Glencorse Reservoirs, returning to the starting point of the  Pentland Hills Walks.

The Pentland Hills do not have the ruggedness of the highlands and are gentler on the feet and not as taxing. Fine views north and south from any of the Pentland hills keep the attention span going. There is a military firing range nearby so care should
be taken when the red flags are showing, meaning some parts of the Pentland Hills Walks are out of bounds.
