Welcome to ‘The Heart of Scotland’!
Scotland’s Braveheart, Sir William Wallace, stood on Abbey Craig to observe the English advancing. Then he ran back down Abbey Craig to help defeat the English at the Battle of Stirling Bridge, the First War of Scottish Independence.
Climb 246 steps up a spiral stone staircase at the National Wallace Monument and you too can cast an eye across the land in search of advancing armies or of grazing sheep, which is actually way more likely.

Randomness: Stirling Castle is the site of the first recorded attempt at flight. In 1507, John Damian leapt from the highest point of the castle with plans to fly to France. But rather than fly, he fell and broke his leg. Damian said the wings he’d fashioned from eagle feathers somehow got poultry feathers slipped into them, thus preventing his flight. Chicken feathers.
