An interesting walk from parking by the equine centre. Good track to the top through an amazing moonscape. Good views. | Gill | 17/10/2023 |

Interesting Bing to explore. Added to the technology at the top is now a partially stripped down crow carcass | Hirta | 26/02/2023 |
Drove through horsey area to park by picnic tables (NT 0252 5537). Good track leads all the way up. | jonglew | 09/02/2023 |
From parking near equestrian centre. Followed track round and up onto Bing. Summit has transmitter with solar panels and wind turbine. Great views. With the F.C. | The Captain | 23/09/2022 |
Parked at the horse centre. A short walk from there | Andrew Simmons | 20/07/2022 |
With Claire. Parked in Tarbrax and walked back to the entrance with a sign for 'Facilitated Equine Therapy'. Follow either of the main tracks as they both lead to the entrance to the bing itself. Hard not to marvel at the sheer size of such a man made structure. Top has solar panels, a wind gauge and various receivers | MickyRoss | 17/01/2021 |
Drove down bumpy tracked at parked at junction before equine centre. Gravel tracks all the way to summit, with interesting rock outcrops. | Minto | 15/08/2020 |
Same route as Jubilado | curlebd | 29/02/2020 |
Parked in centre of village and walked back to track past equine centre. Followed this track through a rusty gate to an excavator near the top then a very short scramble to reach the highest point. Entire 'ascent' in very strong wind and lashing rain. Return to car in dry sunny weather....typical Scotland. | Jubilado | 06/12/2018 |

Entertaining bing from equestrian centre track from near Tarbrax hamlet | Thearlaichdubh | 14/07/2018 |
Fascinating little bing. One of the riding outcrops seems as high as couple of points on the main ridge | vegibagger | 03/07/2018 |
I rather enjoyed this one. | hillsman | 22/06/2018 |
Parked in village then took track towards equine centre and little bing that is being slowly removed. Early attempts to landscape with limited success. Daffodils and rhododendrons planted. Dog poo bin and a bench. Interesting top easily reached with one gate to climb. | Dugswell2 | 20/03/2018 |
P in village, easy access. S top looks good, but 4 second scramble to NE top was more fun. | agentmancuso | 03/02/2018 |
parked in village, good track to the top, visited the 3 bumps and also one 20m NE. | robertphillips | 13/01/2018 |
Ash track leads all the way to the top. Nice views of Cobbinshaw Reservoir to the NE . | Steve511 | 24/06/2017 |
