Last week we found a birthday balloon on Lowther Hill. We thought this gave us an excuse to write a few lines about litter on the hills - and let you know about Mountaineering Scotland's excellent campaign #TakItHame.



[Update 31st May 2019] Thank you very much everybody who supported Lowther Hills Ski Club with their vote at Tesco Lesmahagow. Lowther Hills managed to bag a £2,000 cash boost from the Tesco Bags of Help competition which will be invested in the improvement of the facilities at south of Scotland's only ski centre.

[Update 21st June 2019] Nearly 2,500 deciduous native trees are now growing on Lowther Hill. Big thanks to everybody who supported this project so far -- It's not finished yet, though: we're still due to complete the planting in autumn 2019 with about 500 Scots Pines. Please scroll down to the bottom of this webpage to see a few photos of the tree planting work parties.

We finally have permission to plant trees on Lowther Hill, so let's do it.

Building work underway! Finally, most of the lease and grant-related paperwork is out of the way. We're now busy building as quickly as we can before the winter arrives. Keep an eye out for the November work parties!

Lowther Hills Ski Club members are invited to attend the club's AGM on Sunday 4th November 2018 at 5pm at the Hopetoun Arms Hotel in Leadhills.

We can now confirm that Lowther Hills Ski Club Community Interest Company has obtained a lease over 3 hectares (7.5 acres) of land at Lowther Hill.

Here is a reminder that Lowther Hills Ski Club has received a donation of native trees from The Conservation Volunteers. We have 300 trees (Rowans, Aspens, Alders, and Downy Birches) in a temporary tree nursery area at village level.
