With travel restrictions not long relaxed decided to avoid the popular hills & head down to Dumfries & Galloway. Family Sunday walk.
Parked across the road at the Green Well of Scotland and walked this clockwise as opposed to the WH route. Only saw one other family of four and a couple the whole walk.
Dry and a bit chilly up high with good visibility. Steep pull up when hitting the hill proper and all had some fun bum sliding on our descent
