January 18, 2025, West Lomond Hill

Approaching West Lomond as you gain height the headwind gets stronger and stronger, the hill climb also starts to get steeper. The surface is compact partly rougher rock, but can be rode on without too many problems. Many hikers use these hill paths. It was a Saturday when I rode this trail and plenty people were hiking

Top of West Lomond Hill. This is the highest point in the county of Fife and the highest peak in the Lomond Hills. Its cone shaped summit is the remains of a volcanic plug and rises above an escarpment of Carboniferous layer of both sandstone and limestone.
