| From the visitor centre, walk up into wood and follow the ridge. Apart from a short scramble over several fallen trees, it is a nice gentle plod. | Topographer57 | 15/01/2024 |
| DRC Hogmanay walk, after Torlum via Loch of Balloch. Track west back to the road. | TRG318 | 31/12/2023 |
| From parking at NN 827199, 250m SSW on road then track to within a few metres of the summit. Returned 250m then track S (not shown on maps) and across a few fields to the road. Past Loch of Balloch and on to Torlum. | TRG318 | 06/12/2023 |
| This time up from the east via Newbigging and continued to Drumlochan via Comrie on the bike. Windthrow cleared up, big area of clearfell now where I got stopped and it was clear that I could probably have got up had I made other choices. The road to the west had been upgraded. Fine weather and colours. Summit area was bracken hell. | fasgadh | 07/11/2023 |
| After long Hill day. Parked at visitors centre. Good marked track up all the way. A few windfall trees to clamber over, they've become part of the path now. Return same way. | Lynnebe | 26/04/2023 |
| From the East - fallen trees have been chopped up. so the way is clear. Highest point seems to be a serious bracken just a few feet South off the track | maknipe | 10/10/2022 |
| Parked a bit down the road to the north to make this more of a walk. fallen trees have made this more sporting, nothing dramatic.. very overgrown track, knock mary doesnt see much traffic. | hils | 25/07/2022 |
| Ridge walk (HH caches) with Alma Aurea. | meltdiceburg | 31/05/2022 |
| Info: attempted after Lurgan Hill . Track from west affected by windthrow. Gave up after convincing bypass landed me in a struggle. Minto got in by a day. Went back 7th Nov 2023 - all clear now. The affected woodland has been largely clear felled and the road upgraded. | fasgadh | 17/05/2022 |
| Cycled there and back along good forest roads from the west. | Minto | 25/11/2021 |
| According to Wikipedia, there was a Battle of Knock Mary. | Pete R | 01/02/2020 |
| on good track from the west visited both knolls. | robertphillips | 30/03/2019 |
| After Callum's Hill. Lot of pavement walking until crossed bridge on road to Muthill. Followed path from there which is initially signposted as leading to Muthill. Visited both possible tops. Back same way to catch bus to Stirling. | russell61 | 05/02/2019 |

| A splendid addition to the hills on sheet 58; followed footsteps in the snow (made by the walker formerly known as staclee) to the summit. | richtea5040 | 13/12/2014 |
| I thought I'd be the first person to log this as I've only just discovered it, but richtea doesn't hang about. | alda | 11/12/2014 |
| Walked in by the track from the west. There has been some recent forestry work but nothing drastic. | JohnW | blank |
