Other walks in the area
Dumglow Walk via Windy Gate
Departure from Perthshire and Kinross
Dumglow is an unavoidable point in the area of The Cleish Hill. The Cleish Hills straddle the boundary between Perth & Kinross and Fife. Made up of tussocky grass moorland they have a real hill feel to them despite not being particularly high. The highest point Dumglow lies within Perth and Kinross, but at 339m the nearby Park Hill is the seventh highest hill within Fife. Although Park Hill could be approached from the Fife side, it is probably best included with an ascent of Dumglow.

Lomond Hills Circuit
Departure from Fife
The route starts from the Holl Reservoir car park and goes in an anti-clockwise direction. Walking anti-clockwise has the advantage of going down rather than up the steep south side of West Lomond, although what was just feint path amongst the heather is becoming well trodden nowadays.
Pittencrieff Park & Dunfermline Abbey
Departure from Fife
Known locally as “The Glen”, the beautiful 76 acre Pittencrieff Park was gifted to the people of Dunfermline by Andrew Carnegie. This short walk takes in some of the park’s best bits before allowing you to explore Dunfermline Abbey, burial site of King Robert the Bruce. Keep a look out for the resident peacocks whilst in the park!
Knock Hill and Saline Hill Walk
Departure from Fife
A suggested circular route combining the three summits : discover Knock Hill, Saline Hill and Easter Cairn ! These hills are prominent landmarks in West Fife and Eastern Clackmannanshire and as such provide extensive views of the lower lying countryside. As the 3rd, 4th and 6th highest hills in Fife, Knock Hill, Saline Hill and Easter Cairn (a hillfort site) make up some of the highest ground within the Kingdom.
The Limekilns in Charlestown
Departure from Fife
A combination of coastal footpaths and inland countryside tracks give this circuit variety. Starting along the promenade, delve into the history of the village of Charlestown as you pass the 14 limekilns which were quarried into the cliffs in the 1700s. Walk on the former Elgin railway followed by a minor road high behind the village before returning to the shorefront via a series of farm and woodland tracks. Pass the impressive Broomhall House en route, as well as the Limekilns War Memorial.
Linear from Barnton to Wester Hailes, Edimburgh
Departure from Edinburgh
The aim of the walk is to enjoy Edinburgh’s suburbs, outlying areas, and Green Belt setting (while it still exists) by making use of footpaths, tracks, disused railway lines and riverbanks, ascending mine tips, passing alongside farmland, docks and seafronts, and heading through quiet housing-estates as well as shopping-centres and University campus. This one-way walk goes from Wester Hailes to Kaimes and represents the last leg of a stroll around Edinburgh.
