After Dumgoyne, onto Clacherty, Earls Seat and Dumbreck. | colazione | 14/10/2023 |
From the layby at distillery. We decided to head for the col between Dungoyne and Dunfoyn. Quite hard work. Descent much easier by heading for Earls Seat path. | Crumblie2 | 02/03/2023 |
Parked at layby just north of distillery and followed the earls seat path (this is new, wasnt one when i did that many years ago) to just north of drumiekill knowes, where a handy atv track goes right to the top. short sharp shock, forgot how steep.... | hils | 17/02/2023 |

Earl's Seat, Clachertyfarlie Knowes, Dunfoyn and Dumgoyne on a cold, crisp, freezing day. Brilliant views north and south. | Chris Mac | 01/12/2017 |
After Dumgoyne. Followed path ENE towards Earls Seat to about 400m contour. Then faint path S to summit. Returned to Earls Seat path, and followed path in descent round the N side of Dumgoyne to re-join outward path. Some extra re-ascent, but all quite easy. | Minto | 07/07/2017 |
From the layby next to Dumgoyne distillery. A nice hill. | Alan Moore | 02/05/2017 |
A circuit of Dumgoyne and Dumfoyn in a sunny interlude on a dreich weekend. Parked by the distillery.Path over Pipe Track to summit, then along the Earl's Seat path, until a track branches right to Dumfoyn. A steep descent to a path SE then S by a wooded glen to the Pipe Track. Enjoyable providing you could stay upright on steep slippery slopes - which I did most, but not all, the time. | Nick Down1 | 19/03/2017 |
