Forest track from loch Tima, summit clearfelled, the line of original fire break can be followed from nt 269 075, then a rough gravel path to high point. | BLACKHILL | 05/11/2023 |
Parked at end of a new, unmapped, forest road (NT 2574 0597) - up from Seismological Stn. Stell Hill -> Archie Hill -> Black Knowe first. After BK, regained forest road, following it to NT 2751 0742, then across the clear fell using old mapped breaks. After, carried on along county boundary line for 400m, then old break down to forest road returning to car skirting N side of Brock Hill on breaks and directly over clear fell. 13.5k round. | jonglew | 27/02/2021 |
From Loch Tima up track to high point then followed green line (EC) to ridge - southern tress have been felled so must be first in decades to get a view. | SS | 06/06/2020 |
Parked at Loch Tima and followed the big loop of forestry track until just west of the summit. Trees are mature, so easy to find a route up and through to the summit. Came directly down to the track from the alternative summit point. | LizH | 25/03/2020 |
From Loch Tima. For QH took track to FB at top of EC then took straighter way thru trees to tops. Down FB then track to quarry S of BK. Through clear fell and young trees to top. FB and down Black Sike to track then up thru trees over deep ditches to Archie. | chrisbien | 23/06/2019 |
P Loch Tima, up by Wester Cleuch, straight over forestry road and up old FB by clearfell to remains of fence, quite easy along the top. On to Black Knowe. | agentmancuso | 25/05/2019 |
Two car linear walk with mae, Loch Tima to Jamestown. 13 hills, 9.5 hours. Very heavy going on ungrazed vegetation. No tree problems encountered (except where we diverted from route to utilise forest roads). | jimbloomer | 27/09/2017 |
drove up foresry road to within 300m west of top, then up through trees. | robertphillips | 11/12/2016 |
Drove south up to hairpin bend on forestry tack adjacent to extensive felling. Confronted by logging manager who was very friendly but explained that, whilst we were welcome to walk, we should have left the car at the road as it is private woodland. We apologised and he then gave us directions to the summit. All very civilised. Decent bloke. Up burn (Wester Cleuch) towards Middle Hill to crest of hill and then north east along wide mossy break to summit | Campbell Singer | 25/11/2015 |
Drive up impossible because of recent storms toppling trees. Picked way up through the brash. Forest at top has convenient fire breaks to the summit. | Martin R | 31/12/2013 |
