Seven  members of Biggar Ramblers set out on this classic Pentlands Walk from Flotterstone to Nine Mile Burn. Cars were parked at Nine Mile Burn and the bus was taken to Flotterstone for the start of the walk. There was first a steady climb up to Turnhouse Hill, followed by an easier section to the foot of Carnethy Hill, where a sheltered spot was found for a coffee break.There was then another climb up to Carnethy Hill, from where wonderful views opened up as far as North Berwick to the East and the Forth Bridges and Fife to the North. There was then a descent to The Grain Burn and the Old Kirk Road which used to be used by worshippers going to church in Penicuik. The walk now continued with a good climb up to Scald Law, the highest point on the day's walk. Despite a fresh breeze, a good spot was found for lunch, looking out over the Forth and the hills beyond. The wind was now freshening and some of the strong gusts meant that the ascent of the final two peaks, East Kip and West Kip proved trickier than expected. The final part of the walk was over Cap Law, passing the ancient Font Stone, arriving back at the parked cars at Nine Mile Burn. All agreed that this had been a challenging but most enjoyable walk.
