You could also try the Baddinsgall circuit parking at either Baddinsgall, or by West Linton Golf Club, or at Little Vantage on the Lang Whang (A70) including East Cairn Hill, Wether Law, The Mount, Grain Heads, Mount Maw, Baddinsgall, King Seat, Byrehope Mount, Wolf Craigs, Colzium Hill and West Cairn Hill. If starting from Little Vantage, the return off West Cairn Hill across the well named Baad Park will test your last reserves of stamina!
Another circuit starts at the Tabrax Road end, again on the Lang Wang, and follows the right of way (with posts) to the Covenanter's Grave on Black Law - a short diversion to the top of White Craig is well worth while - from Black Law drop down NE to the Medwin Water and follow this north to where the 3 counties meet, from there walk up the gentle slope to Craigengar, and return west to the starting point.
Today I did a shorter circuit from Threipmuir /Bavelaw car park up past Hare Hill, over West Kip, East Kip, Scald Law, Carnethy Hill down to the col before White Craig Heads and then cut down N to cross the Logan Burn and returned by the The Howe and the Green Cleugh.
The combinations possible in the Pentlands are endless and only limited by your (and my) imagination.
