    Tips

    April 23, 2023

    Running

    A tough climb or steep descent from the saddle on the ridge at 445m between Scald Law and Carnethy Hill and The Howe at 269m. Running this section does allow a great loop that includes the summits on the ridge and Glencorse Reservoir so it’s worth including in your run.

    Running

    Steep drop down to the cleugh. Some gravel, some sections just a grassy slope. If it's wet, you'll be on your arse.
