    Tips

    September 4, 2023

    It is one of my favourite spots for views, whether on the bike or by car. Clear views of the Pentland Hills and South towards (not seen) Gladhouse Reservoir. If heading southbound, the road becomes very bumpy until a little past Mount Lothian. It's well worth a visit as part of a route and timing it to sunrise or sunset could be well worth it.
