Parked at the car park to the SW of Neilston Pad before enjoying Duncarnock, Nielston pad and Dyke hill. Off to Knockenae via the wind farm path. High point easy to find as all the trees have been felled - felt like I was visiting Chernobyl.. | Buck | 26/02/2024 |
Along the win farm track until a building reached, then across grassland and into forestry. | summitter | 26/07/2022 |
Up by windfarm track. Interesting mixed wood to summit and turbines named by local schoolchildren gave added interest. (Whirlie, Birlie etc.) | lordtonult | 03/09/2021 |
Round of 5 (well 4 if this isn't) from Neilston - Knockenae, Dareduff Hill, Knockmade, Corkindale Law and Thornliemuir. Left road S of Muirhead, followed fenceline SSW then round to S of plantation. Approched summit from S, then descened E to wind turbine. | quadbarrel | 13/03/2021 |
From track to SE leading to community wind farm. Lower branches of trees in plantation are removed so you can walk through any of it. | sclater | 07/07/2020 |
In forest, easily reached from tracks in the community owned windfarm. Final one of four tumops on circular walk from Neilston. | Grinner | 22/06/2020 |
Parked at the entrance to the windfarm. Walked to just beyond the first turbine and through the new 'walkers gate'. Across the grass to the small wood, and easily up through mature trees to the summit. | LizH | 11/06/2020 |
