ハーペリッグ貯水池でののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Lovely view over the local countryside over to Greendykes Shale Bing.

It's been an unseasonably dry spring, yet there were still some flooded and very boggy unrideable sections early on (coming from the little vantage car park) and further up. I had a 15 mile trek to get here and by the time I got to the top of cauldstane slap I wanted to head home as i was absolutely knackered, but rather than go back through that I opted for a 30mile road detour rather than 20miles back the way I came. I made it and the views were spectacularly worth the massive effort.

Lin's Mill Aqueduct carries the Union Canal over the River Almond.

Be sure to dismount and walk across. Signage has graffiti covering it so it may not be clear.

This historic single track path is known as Thieves Road, and was an important north-south route which cattle were driven from the north of Scotland, down through West Linton and on to England. It cuts through the beautiful Pentlands Hills and is mainly an exposed section of track offering fabulous views. You may need to walk your bike through much of it but it’s worth it if you’ve got the time.

Baddinsgill Reservoir is a charming little reservoir that rests peacefully in a picturesque valley along Thieves' Road, within the Pentland Hills. It's the perfect location to catch your breath and enjoy a picnic amongst some of Scotland's finest scenery.

If you don't mind the ground being a bit boggy, this is a lovely spot in the Pentland Hills to camp, especially if you catch the sun setting.

Great cycle path through the park
