Parks & Nature
The Southern Upland Way runs along the Lowther Hills, touching Leadhills. This 130-odd mile total walking path is very popular and runs in a stunningly beautiful line along the hills. Do a section of it, successive sections of it or the lot in one go!

Arts & Culture
The social history of Leadhills and Wanlockhead is second to none! Here the working classes were educated before any others in Britain - here the first working-class libraries came into existence as the first of their kind probably in the world - in 1741 and 1756 - and they are still here!!
