Corstorphine Hill is a low ridge-shaped hill rising above the western suburbs of Edinburgh, Scotland. Although there has been residential and commercial development on its lower slopes, especially in the south and west, most of the hill is occupied by a local nature reserve, consisting of extensive broadleaf woodland, and is accessible to the public. The hill, which is composed largely of dolerite, was formed by the west-to-east movement of glaciers during the Pleistocene period. There is evidence of prehistoric settlement. Today the hill is popular with walkers, dog-walkers and joggers. Among its interesting features are a 19th-Century tower, a walled garden and a Cold War bunker.

  • Corstorphine Hill est l'une des collines d'Édimbourg, en Écosse, du nom de la ville voisine de Corstorphine. On parle traditionnellement de sept collines à Edimbourg en référence aux Sept collines de Rome, mais ce chiffre est discutable et, à mesure que la ville s’est développée, plus encore. C'est une longue colline en forme de crête, principalement boisée (bois de Corstorphine), et elle est plus développée du côté sud, comprenant le zoo d'Édimbourg. De nombreux logements ont été construits sur les pentes les plus basses et des maisons dans d’autres parties de la ville ont été construites avec de la pierre extraite de la carrière de Corstorphine.
