Straightforward tracks and rides to the summit from the ENE. Trig much harder to find and access but got there in the end. | AndyS | 13/10/2023 |
Parked in forest entrance and then followed tracks to west. Up a firebreak which improved with height with a game trail aiding progress. Return the same way, some 50m back down firebreak by an ld straining post head west to visit trig pillar in dense new growth. | cjo | 21/09/2023 |
Parked at track start to NE. Up from 6627/7222 as per jonglew but track soon disappeared in young trees. Down on firebreak to 66218-72211. | duchally | 13/04/2023 |
Get to NH 66194 72310 then it's easy up pathed ride. | jimbloomer | 20/06/2021 |
From Nonikiln Farm as per Andrew Finnimore's helpful report especially re final bit of route. Spoke to farmer and parked at roadside by old churchyard. Trig already hard to find, high point nearby (and feels like the high point). | willyross | 13/02/2020 |
3 of 3: From Nonikiln Farm as Andrew Finnimore. No layby. The farmer showed me a spot in his farmyard where I could park. The TP is very hard to spot as the young trees obscure it and make access to it difficult. 66131 72454. | ChrisR | 16/09/2019 |
Approached from the NE. The trig wasn't easy to locate concealed by some growing conifers. | hill walker | 04/01/2019 |
Found an easy way up this one. Park in small layby across from Nonikiln Farm. Up farm track past big house, cross wall and fence and easily through band of conifers and a few fallen trees to forest track. Turn right and after a short distance where the tall pines meet new plantings, head up a heather-covered ride to the summit. Where an old fence starts,go forward 20ms then left 20ms and the trig should come into view. No thrashing through old forest debris this way, just a pleasant stroll! However, don't leave it too long, the trig will be devilishly difficult to find in a few yrs time! | AndrewFinnimore | 14/04/2018 |
Roadside verge parking (NH 6752 7339). Good track to NH 6655 7239 when an unmapped track forks right. Take this to NH 6627 7222 then take a faint logging track directly to the hill top / trig pillar. Gets messy with brash etc, but not overly difficult. With Carole Engel. | jonglew | 03/04/2018 |
Not as horrid as expected. No need for tears. | Martin R | 22/05/2017 |
Cycled from Scotsburn to start of forest track to NE to summit. Where track turns S headed SW up wide ride where forestry machines have been though. Above 220m contour trees have been felled. Very easy alongside the fence marked on 1:25K map, to fence corner. Trig point is on the edge of young trees, 3m high summer 2016, so will be obscured soon from the fence. High point appears to be NE of the fence that runs over the summit from NW to SE. Horrid terrain amongst the felled trees. | Minto | 29/07/2016 |
Here for the trgipoint. TP:UK log: 
 
Parked at end of farm track and headed up through field across wall and fence and eventually ended up at a track. Headed along track until the trees cleared and then spotted a track up towards the trig. Not a bad track. Last 40m to trig was tough, very rutted log strewn area with big piles of sticks to climb over. Views however are superb. | thejackrustles | 20/02/2015 |
From the forest track NE of the hill | keithpostie | 23/11/2014 |
Summit area now clear felled. Pretty horrid | Colin Crawford | 28/08/2014 |
Approached from west then north. Summit in cleared area as is the trig. | Adrian | 13/06/2014 |
Approach up firebreak from south. 
Trig point next to fallen tree just west of stile at corner of fence. | PeteF | 16/03/2009 |

2019-parked at NH 678 935, used landrover track and then off piste following deer tracks . As before, the trees have grown, lots of brash collected in deep tracks. Potential for me to twist ankle. for me, a lot of effort, husband found the Trig Point. I only found husband as he wore a bright jacket. for me, a lot of effort | VerySlowPlodder | blank |
