1 review of Bar Hill

The Highest Peak on the Wall

Excellent

Bar Hill is an example of some of the highlands surrounding Glasgow, such as certain castles (for example, Bothwell). In this case, the hill was a strategic location for the area's Roman legions. As usual, the Romans didn't build in this place without a good reason. There are clear views of great distances and it's not easily accessible, which was important when facing the Pictish tribes. At present, besides the ruins and the wall of Antoninus, it's frequented by hikers, mostly families (since it's not very difficult), for the views and landscapes from the highest point. It's curious to find traditional farms in the middle half of the hill, who are accustomed to the walkers.
