Guthrie's Path looking east to Binny Craig

I had a 5 mile cross country run this afternoon. It was one of those life affirming afternoons where the visibility was crystal clear. I ran up Cockleroy in Beecraigs Country Park and the views were amazing. I could clearly see Goatfell on Arran which is 77 miles away as the crow flies.

This shot is taken on Guthrie's path which runs due East/West for about a mile and a half and borders the South side of Beecraigs country park. The strong sunshine just lit up the pine trees.

As ever it looks better bigger.

On a day like today the views from here are beautiful. Arthurs seat in Edinburgh and the Pentland hills can be clearly seen. On a weekday it feels like you have the park to yourself as visitors are so few.
