Routes

The Pentland Hills Regional Park offers many routes for people to enjoy. 

Download our Visitors guide and map. It shows the 100km network of marked paths that are regularly maintained. There are also non-waymarked, unmaintained paths in the hills.

If setting off on a walk, we recommend you read our Safety in the hills page. You should be adequately equipped for the route you intend to do, and aware of potential weather issues.
