Lion's Face & Cromlins

Explores the distinctive Lion's Face rock formation and Cromlins area with moderate climbs through Roslin Glen's wooded trails. Expect uneven, rooty paths with some steep sections – manageable for older children but not suitable for buggies. Dogs welcome on leads, especially near livestock fields. The geological features and glen views make this a rewarding short ramble just south of Edinburgh, perfect for a morning adventure before settling into your pitch.

Around Craig Leek

Circuits Craig Leek through mixed woodland and open moorland with moderate climbs offering panoramic Deeside views. Terrain includes forest tracks and rougher upland paths with some steep sections – best suited to confident walkers with sturdy footwear. Not buggy-friendly due to uneven ground and gradients. Dogs welcome but keep close during grouse season (August-December). The rewarding summit views across the Cairngorms and glen below make this a worthwhile half-day adventure.
