    Hiking

    The lagoons here were originally dumping grounds for the ash from Cockenzie Power Station. The sea wall was created to allow the ash to settle and over time with help from the owners Scottish Power and the RSPB the old pits have been capped and landscaped to create important wetland habitat. The area is now managed by the RSPB and has become one of the best areas in mainland Scotland to watch birds.
