Corstorphine Hill Walks
'The "woods" is the local name for the hill, the almost total tree-cover of its upper parts indicated by the darker green on the map. It is criss-crossed by numerous formal tracks and informal paths ... However there are as yet no signs or way-markings through the woods, so finding one's way is a case of map-reading or being on a guided tour.'
'Corstorphine Hill is only 531 feet (161 metres) high. However, from all angles it presents a long low wood-covered ridge, rising above the western suburbs of Edinburgh: Corstorphine, Blackhall Murrayfield and Balgreen ... Corstorphine Hill is readily identified by its distinctive Tower ... The tree-cover makes finding view-points difficult; however, there are several good locations for each side of the hill, and when the Tower is open to the public, a magnificent all-round view can be obtained from the top.'
