Lone tree in the Touch Hills The Touch Hills (pronounced 'tooch', with the 'ch' as in loch), are an array of many knolls, hillocks and layered basalt lava flows. The name apparently derives from the Gaelic word 'tulach', meaning knoll or hillock, and it's not difficult to see why.

Heather and Scots pines at Slack of Ballangair The large-scale map attaches the name Slack of Ballangair to this area, where the West Burn flows through quite a deep ravine. The first part of the name probably derives from the Gaelic word slochd, meaning 'pit' or 'hollow'.
