Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Excellent views from the top, steep climb but short parking is not easy as the access road is narrow, park at the golf course for a slightly longer walk.

Been up there a few times over the years, strange how quickly you can do the climb when you are younger..........
downside is, more difficult as you get older, a bit more huffing and peching, but you get there in the end and the views are outstanding, the reason you set out for the top in the first place!!
Still, good pubs nearby in either Linlithgow or Uphall, both good places to have a well-earned beer or two!!

Binny Craig is a moderate walk/climb to experience a fantastic view of westlothian which includes the forth road bridges. The path to the hill is quite over grown so water proof sturdy footwear is a necessary.

A fantastic walk in the countryside, the most beautiful scenery and plenty of wildlife. Public footpaths are easily accessible and steeped in history.

I live close by, this is a great walk, whether you walk to it , up it, or round it ( recommend all three) it's beautiful.
On a clear day you can see to calendar or in the other direction the bass rock. If you drop down the back and walk round you might see, deer, badgers, foxes, buzzards as well as a number of other species I don't recognise!!!
Great place just to sit down and reflect/contemplate.
There are steep/ slippy stairs on the way to the main hill, the summit of Binny is reached via a steep grassy slope which takes about 5 minutes to climb if relatively fit, well worth it for the views.
Watch your dogs with the sheep.

Well worth the visit especially if you have a camera. A bit of steep climb at the crag itself but the views from the top (220m) are breathtaking and well worth any exertion.
Parking up close for a quick visit can be difficult, but there's plenty of parking in nearby Uphall and a well signposted and maintained walk from there (even with a sturdy seat to take a rest on the way).
You can return to Uphall the way you came or if you prefer a longer, circular walk, return by way of Ecclesmachan. Reverse back to the first tarmac road, turn left and follow this road down to the village, then turn right at the junction with the main road which will take you back to Uphall.
