| A round of 4 Simms & a Dodd from the parking North of Rottal. White Hill, Ruragh, Finbracks, Manywee and Tops of Fichell in gloomy conditions as the cloud did not lift all day. With Minto. | NormanW | 12/11/2022 |
| From Ben Tirran | Adrian | 09/08/2022 |
| Parked in the Rottal Estate parking area at about NO368703. Through the gate at the back of the flat area, along the forest edge, then east across rough ground to join the estate track to the shooting lodge west of the shoulder at Burn of Heughs. Crossed the little bridge there, then on up the track, choosing a grassy track further up, then back on the main track, and finally across short heather to the summit. Continued to Finbracks. | LizH | 14/01/2022 |
| Major upgrade of estate tracks facilitate walking on this hill. Fortunately a small bridge by the shooting hut at approx NO376704. Good job, given the epic flooding today! | BaggerGutt | 31/10/2021 |
| From Rottal estate parking NO367705, along rough track at woodland edge to gate in deer fence, then across wet moorland (no tracks) to cross Burn of Heughs near NO376706, reaching track heading NE towards White Hill which became very indistinct, until joining a new 4WD road that runs on W side of Burn of Heughs to the hut at NO376715 then on to very near the top of White Hill (visible from the parking when hill is not in cloud), followed this, diverting to the summit, continued S on old ATV tracks along E side of a double electric fence to a burn crossing near the col, crossed back to W side of fence and onto another ATV track along grouse butts up Meg Swerie, turning SW along old fence line to summit of Finbracks, and onto summit of Manywee, then NW down old ATV tracks to crossing Kennel Burn continuing on tracks to W side of Burn of Heughs, then back across the wet moor to the woodland edge and the estate parking | kdbennett | 15/08/2021 |
| A good 8 top round mostly on good tracks, white hill, wester hill, earn skelly, ruragh, hill of glansie, finbracks, manywee, tops of fichell from the parking area north of rottal. | robertphillips | 19/03/2020 |
| From large car park on right, NW of Rottal. Continued to Ruragh, Hill of Glansie, Finbracks, Manywee & Tops of Fichel. | duchally | 18/03/2019 |
| White Hill, Cairn Trench and Ben Tirran from Rottal . | Waterlog | 27/02/2019 |
| Parked at carpark west of Rottal. There is a very indistinct path from the exit gate, which follows the line of the wood, continuing north to a gate in a felled area. From here it is easy to access a very stony estate track, which leads to the summit. Saw an adder on the way down. Also met estate workers, who were friendly, but I think the estate wants hillwalkers to avoid Rottal. | JohnW | 29/05/2018 |
| Horrible estate road. | Martin R | 28/10/2017 |
| Huge parking area 400m N of Rottal. Direct link E to main estate road is rather wet but the Land Rover track now goes almost to the summit (crosses burn well N of track shown on map just by shooting hut at approx 377 715) | Tony S | 18/03/2017 |
| The ridge south to north from Manywee via Finbracks,WEjhite Hill, Carn Trench, Black Shank, Ben Tirran and Green Hill. Nit of a plod really, might have been better on a clearer day. | dickscroop | 21/09/2016 |
