Guidebook containing 33 contrasting walks in central Scotland’s Ochils, Campsie Fells and Lomond Hills. Despite their proximity to Edinburgh, Glasgow and Perth, these three ranges remain a remarkably uncrowded wilderness area. Offer a mixture of moorland peaks, steep-sided glens, fast-flowing burns and lush woodland in a single day’s outing.

Seasons

Year round. May, June and September are recommended. Tops of the Ochils are particularly hard and cold in winter.

Centres

Menstrie, Alva, Tillicoultry, Dollar, Glen Devon, Strathblane, Lennoxtown, Milton of Campsie, Kilsyth, Fintry, Kinross, Glenrothes

Difficulty

Circular hillwalking routes of varied difficulty from just under 4km to 25.5km. Basic navigation required.
