🚶🏻‍♀️🚶‍♂️MEET PEOPLE YOUR AGE! 🚶‍♂️🚶🏻‍PENTLAND HILLS HIKE!

Join us for this lovely hike! Please make sure you read the event description to know what to expect!

This time we will start from the midlothian snowsports centre, to head towards Allermuir hill, finishing in Penicuik.

The walk is about 7miles/12km, with an ascent of around 500m. This hike is very steep at some parts so make sure you have a good fitness level and are comfortable with this. This should take just around 4 hours, depending on speed, but we will be doing a few stops so the total will likely be closer to 5 hours + the bus journey back from Penicuik.

It is a long walk so make sure you bring snacks and drinks to keep you fuelled throughout it! 🍌
As always, weather is unpredictable so be prepared with suncream and a rain coat to weather any storm! 🧥
Hiking boots or shoes are essential for this walk.

Meeting time: 12 midday
How to get there:
Bus number 4 is the easiest option by far as this is not a circular walk. I be taking the 10:58 bus from princes street, so I am happy to meet anyone coming with this bus at 10:50 at the top of Waverley steps in princes st.
If you come by car, you could park in the snowsports centre car park or on the main road (check signage) but this is not advised as even though there is a bus service that could take you back there, it is very unreliable and precisely the reason why we are finishing the walk in Penicuik.
