Colinton Tunnel. It's a beautiful use of an old railway tunnel & station from days gone bye. Whether you're walking or gentle mountain biking, you will enjoy it. Beautiful mural with individally painted sections. If it were on the other side of Lanark Road - Wester Hailes (Where I live) - it might be spray-painted & stinking of urine; so you can definately tell that you are in a better area - it is clean & the lights are on 24/7. No junkies or crazy homeless people shouting @ you.
I live about 1 Km from Colinton & yet it might as well be a light year - the difference is so profound 😢
