This is where the Capital Trail passes closeby to the summit of Crib Law at 1670 feet (509 meters) in the Lammermuir Hills.

On a clear day, expect spectacular views over the moorland and be sure to visit in late summer or early autumn for great swathes of purple heather.

Nice wide gravel roads. Super steep gradients.

Decent track mostly with a couple of sharp kicks. On reflection, would probably have taken the route back down to Hopes Reservoir. Although there is a path heading up towards Lammer Law, coming off the top was more rutted grass path amongst heather.
