    Hiking

    The car park here is the usual start point for the ascent of Scheihallion, one of Scotland's most recognisable mountains. There's a memorial here to the efforts of Nevil Maskelyne and Charles Hutton in 1774, when they worked on the Schiehallion Experiment, an ambitious project to determine the mass of the Earth. One of the byproducts of the experiment was Hutton's invention of contour lines.
