Who Dares Cares Pentlands 5 Peaks Challenge

Who Dares Cares Pentlands 5 Peaks Challenge

This is the perfect half day hike… It’s beautiful and not too challenging, but it’ll get your heart pumping!

During the Pentland’s 5 Peaks Challenge you’ll see some of the best Scottish nature! Sometimes all you need is a little fresh air. The views are incredible and you get to top out five hills in the Scottish lowlands.

You go up and down Turnhouse Hill, Carnethy Hill, Scald Law, East Kip and West Kip.

We will also offer a low road route missing out the 5 peaks which will just be as enjoyable covering a 10 mile route.

The start and finish point will be the general public car park just passed the Flotterstone Inn. We’ll stop at the Inn at the end to grab a hot drink, a GREAT way to end the day.
