Bob Law: The Pentlands Gallery

A Pentlands View
 
The Pentlands are a much loved hill group rising above the Scottish city of Edinburgh. They are cherished by locals and visitors alike in much the same way as the Campsies, Kilpatricks, and Brownside Braes are loved by the people of Glasgow and Paisley.

With frequent buses, trains, and car parks available, travel to the Pentlands is simple,  Folk from outside the city can also appreciate exploring this beautiful hill range on a network of walker friendly paths. Car parks exist beside Hillend Ski slope on Caerketton Hill and the minor road from Balerno to Bavelaw has parking areas as well.

Local Edinburgh buses to Oxgangs or Colinton running from the capital bring the Pentlands within walking distance for those without a car but possessing enthusiastic legs. Approx 12km round trip to Pentland summits from these buses.
