Legend has it that Robert the Bruce sheltered in the King’s Cave before the Battle of Bannockburn. As he sat, the King saw a spider trying to build a web and keep falling. Eventually, however, the spider succeeded in the task. Afterwards, Bruce decided to retry his fight and told his men: "If at first you don't succeed, try, try and try again". Whether you believe the legend or not, the King's Cave and the series of other caves nearby are great to explore.

Another set of interesting caves not much further along from King's Cave and can be spotted easily from there. Theses might be more interesting.
Evidently there have been instagram fanatics here, building their little rock piles. There was only 3 or 4 in 2016.
