Stirling: Wallace Monument 
Description
The Wallace monument is Scotland's national monument, to the man (immortalised on screen by Mel Gibson as Braveheart) who helped, temporarily, to kick the English out of Scotland. The monument is on the top of a big hill which you can climb up (taking about 10 minutes), or you can cheat and catch the free minibus to the top (about 90 seconds!). From the base of the monument you can climb up the spiral staircase (240+ stairs) to the top for, what I was reliably informed are on a clear day, stunning views over Stirling and across from Edinburgh to the Highlands.

Getting There
There are regular buses from the centre of town to Causewayhead (10-25 minutes depending on the route) from where it's a 5-10 minute walk to the visitors centre at the bottom of the hill the monument stands on. Regular courtesy buses climb up to the monumnet if you don't fancy the 15-20 minute hike up through the woods.Latitude: 56.138753; Longitude: -3.918031
