Climb the 246 spiral steps of the Victorian tower on Abbey Craig, past William Wallace's sword, to the open crown at the top.
Why it's a good date: The view from the top takes in the castle, the Forth and the bridge where Wallace won in 1297. Walk up the woodland path to the tower rather than taking the shuttle bus, and go on a clear day.
