KING'S CAVE
Natural site to discover
Read moreLegend has it that Robert the Bruce took shelter in this cave before the Battle of Bannockburn and met the famous spider that encouraged him to continue his fight. He would have watched him fail six times, just as he had lost six times to the English. If the seventh was good for the spider, it would be good for him too. The spider succeeded: Robert the Bruce fought. Besides the legend, the cave is worth seeing for its beautiful surroundings. A 4.7 km marked trail leads to it between forests, panoramic views, moors and cliffs.
