Close to Edinburgh, easy parking, stunning views and multiple route choices. A great day out in anyone's book.

A lovely walk round threipmuir and harlaw reservoirs. Parking charges now in force £2.50 for a 2 hour stay.

Beautiful location. Used to go up there as I use to be a local in the area. Place to unwind on my days off after working in the bustling city 🤣. During COVID I remember meeting people that lived in Edinburgh for many years not realising that the Pentlands park was vast and beautiful ❤️ I've been in all types of weather and experienced the Pentlands at day and night. And it's beautiful all round. ps I prefer it when it rains and it's foggy 😀🤣. It feels like your in another world.

This is my go-to place considering it's only a 15 min drive for me. Very quickly and easily immerse myself in nature and have some of the most amazing breathtaking views of the beautiful Glencorse reservoir. Great walking trails, smell of fresh sheep poo mixed with the mountains, there is something so magical and refreshing and healing. It's near the army reserves, so can see some young army folks running or huddled in a team meeting. There are also firing ranges that can be seen, but I have rarely heard shots being fired. Great place and highly recommend for folks not afraid of walking. Remember to use the toilets in the car park as one could get mesmerised and lost spending too much time in nature when the body clock is ticking away.

10,000 hectares of rolling hills, farmland, waterways and stunning landscape. Signposted walks of various lengths, toilets, food-stops and plenty of wildlife. Frequent buses to Balerno from centre of Edinburgh. The park extends approximately 20 miles (30 kilometers) in length and boasts over 100 km of paths. The highest point in the Pentland Hills is Scald Law, standing at 579 meters (1,900 ft).
