From the club house across the golf course. Trig sits on a little moundAndrew Simmons11/06/2023
Parked on Dalmary Drive and in through the gates to the Club House. Had a brief chat with a couple of golfers before following the edge of the course towards the trig point, across one fairway, then round the edge and finally across between two greens to the summit. Some golfers around, but I was less a distraction than the large boxer dog taking some exercise. Pleasant views despite the drizzle.Buck22/08/2022
Picked a wet day and no golfers in evidence. Straight up from the club house.sclater30/01/2022

Parked at E end of Balgair Drive, near back ent to GC. Took a direct line up, initially along rear of the houses. Trig pillar sits at the high point on a nice little mound. En-route to Colonsay.jonglew08/09/2021

Parked just outside entrance to the Club House. Just a few golfers, but none seemed to mind as I kept mostly to the edge. Great view from the trig on an imposing mound. Then back to Manchester ~480 mile day arriving just after 17:00GordonAdshead16/07/2020
Walk from home, just along hedge and over a couple of fairways. Trig is right by a green: decent view and no bother/interest from the golfers.Grinner28/06/2020
Parked on Dalmary Drive and in through the gates to the Club House. (The gates also give access to Barshaw Park.) Followed the edge of the course towards the trig point, quickly across one fairway, then round the edge and finally across between two greens to the summit. Some golfers around, but they may be used to people going to the trig point.LizH17/06/2020

Parked in Balgair Drive near golf course entrance. Followed hedge up alongside road. Then zig-zagged across to woods, from where summit shelter and trig point are in sight. Plenty golfers around, no one took any notice of me.Minto26/05/2015

Climbed this dozens of times as it's the closest hill to my house - just a few minutes walk away. If you're driving the easiest route is to park in the golf car park at the end of Balgair Drive, cross the 1st tee and just keep heading uphill. watch out for golfers.mattymattblank
