Worth the trip around Glasgow
The places with the most to tell about. The numbers match the map.
Glasgow's castles start close in: Haggs Castle at 4 km, Cathcart Castle at 5.8 km, Crookston Castle at 7 km, Bedlay Castle at 11.2 km, with Dumbarton Castle on its rock at 20.7 km, 23 in all. The Antonine Wall is 7.2 km from the center, and the Cochno Stone at 11.6 km heads 72 archaeological sites. The Glasgow Tower at 2.5 km is the modern lookout.
Thirty-one waterfalls is the figure to notice: the Loup of Fintry at 21.5 km, Ishneich at 20.6 km, Calderwood Linn and the Grey Mare's Tail Waterfall at 13 km among them. Meikle Bin at 18.1 km and Duncolm at 16.5 km are the big hills. Waterfalls make good quests: you know when you've arrived.
Each hexagon covers a little over 5 square kilometers. The brighter it glows, the more places are inside it. The numbers mark the highlights listed below; the dot in the middle is the center of Glasgow.

RLQuest knows these places too. Which means:
Some of your daily quests lead to a real place near you. The app uses your location to check you were really there.
If you're the first person in RLQuest to complete a quest at a place, it's your first find. The Place Book shows you which kinds of place you're still missing.
Every walk uncovers tiles, each about 350 m across. Over time you can see which corners you know well, and where you've never set foot.
