Lowland Outcrops (SMC)
The Lowland regions of Scotland are a climber's paradise, with easy access from the two main cities Glasgow and Edinburgh, and located in Ayrshire, the Central Belt, and the Stirlingshire hills. Despite not being as grand as the Highlands, the Lowlands make up for it with their diverse and accessible dolerite quarries, adventurous greywacke sea cliffs, and basalt test pieces. Boasting over 1,900 trad, sport, and bouldering routes, there is something for everyone, from esoteric gems to world-classics. This guide, compiled and regularly updated by local activists, presents the very best the Lowlands have to offer. It features colour photographic topos, detailed maps, public transport, and accessibility information, as well as inspiring action shots, making it suitable for seasoned climbers and beginners looking to take their first steps onto outdoor crags. The book covers Stirlingshire, Glasgow, Ayrshire, the Forth Valley, Berwickshire Coast, and the Borders Hills.
