| An exhilarating after work solo 50 min running blast around rough swampy hills. Linked with Setter Hill -not too bad going as half rough grass. From Cemetery car park 18mins up - slow as I obligingly followed the footpath sign that avoided the Griesta houses via a swampy track, bull field, and heather. from summit 16 mins fell running along the rough swampy ridge to the Tump of Setter, with a lovely feeling of tranquillity over silvery calm inland lochans and the sea beyond in pale sunshine. 16 mins fast down via Setter farm and back along the lake side passing the lake promontory known as Law Ting - where the ancient parliament of Shetland sat (on rocks!). The reason for an open promontory was that they could be seen to be meeting but not heard! Ting (often Thing) assembly sites are found throughout Northern Europe, as a result of a shared Norse heritage. | Chris Pearson | 11/05/2021 |
| Parked to the west of Law Ting Holm then up road to farm then along track to Loch of Griesta before heading to the summit of Hill of Griesta. Then direct line taken towards Setter Hill before easy walk back to car with Colin Crawford. | Dugswell2 | 09/06/2019 |
