| Done in combination with Moncrieffe Hill as a circular walk out from the centre of Perth. Can imagine the views from here are excellent on a clear sunny day, but the light was rapidly fading as I got up here in the late afternoon and the rain set again once again as I hurried on back down to town. | Alex C | 03/01/2024 |
| Dedicated parking at NO108217. S up tk, over M90, up through trees to escape at kissing gate with awkward chain | Isbjorn | 25/09/2023 |

| From S, having parked in the space a few yards east bf the track end. Despite the Ochils being snow-free, the track resembled a toboggan run, although the frozen summit area which would otherwise have been churned to mud by cattle was compensation. A rather nice viewpoint. | Nick Down1 | 20/01/2023 |

| From the corner of Glendevon Road. Up on tracks. Another beautiful day. Bumped into a nice chap from Perth mountaineering club. Nice way to spend half an hour in the spring sunshine! 50 mins, but could easily be done in 20. | Nicky C | 05/03/2021 |

| Parked just off the minor road a short distance east of the track end, to the south of the hill. Followed the track to the masts, then through the gate and across to the trig point. Beautiful cold, sunny day. Great views. | LizH | 17/11/2019 |

| First of Perth trio... from Parking for St Magdalene’s Hill to the north. Up the mast track, over the M90, then pleasant path through the woodland before joining the other mast track. Short walk over field of bullocks to the trig. Suspicion that the ground near the smaller mast could be higher. Sunny, and great views over Perth | N.Morters | 13/11/2019 |

| Parked in pleasant free carpark in Moncreiff to NE of summit then walked on marked path over the motorway, through woods and up to summit through sheep pasture with aerials. Trig on grassy hump, but think the HP was on south side of western aerial compound, c 45 p E of trig on another grassy mound. | Denise | 15/04/2017 |
