Arthurs Pins and Buttons

Getting distracted by Castle Hill for a couple of days we had to cancel our hikes in Arthur's Pass, leaving just enough time for the impressive Devils Punchbowl waterfall!

Arthur's Stone on Cefn Bryn, Gower. This is an erratic dropped by the last ice age and later made into a Neolithic burial chamber.

Once we crossed Arthur's Pass on the road between the South Island's west and east coasts, the landscape drastically changed. Gone were the lush green forests of the west coast; they had been replaced with an almost arid, mottled brown landscape. As you would expect with NZ, though, it was still stunningly gorgeous!

The Bonscale Towers are two cairns located on the ascent upto Bonscale Pike from the Martindale area of the Lake District. The ascent in this rea gives fantastic views onto Ullswater, before the track takes you away from the Ullswater towards Arthurs Pike, High Street, Loadpot Hill, before descending back to Martindale.

Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags, Edinburgh, Scotland. Arthur's Seat is the main peak of the group of hills which form most of Holyrood Park, a remarkably wild piece of highland landscape in the centre of the city of Edinburgh, about a mile to the east of Edinburgh Castle. The hill rises above the city to a height of 251 m (823 feet), provides excellent panoramic views of the city, is quite easy to climb, and is a popular walk. Though it can be climbed from almost any direction, the easiest and simplest ascent is from the East, where a grassy slope rises above Dunsapie Loch. Many claim that its name is a derivation of a myriad of legends pertaining to King Arthur, such as the reference in Y Gododdin.
