Circular route from roadside parking NX611622. Took rad and track towards Grobdale of Girthon, then fairly direct climb to Ewe Hill. Continued along ridge to Laughenghie Hill (visiting the various summit contenders), descent NE over increasingly rough ground, crossed stream and climb to Airie Hill (also visiting the cairn). Descent S to climb Clack Hill, on to Loch Hill and to road via track from Grobdale of Balmaghie. Followed road SW from about 1km then headed SSW to climb Fell of Laghead, on to Craigtype and Benfadyeon. Returned via path to Laghead Bridge and road to start point. Some sunshine, some rain, fairly breezy. | RobertP | 02/07/2023 |
Direct line SE from Airie Hill over dry tussocks, sometimes deep/ boggy to wacke (no longer granite) outcrop with small cairn. Slow but not bad. Larks singing. Breezy sun. Onto Slogarie. | Denise | 21/04/2022 |
From end of public road to Slogarie, verge parking for 1 car (NX 6525 6891). Took track running N and W, over Stroan Bridge, then direct across very rough ground to Airie Hill -> Clack Hill -> Slogarie Hill. Rained all the way; an unusually unpleasant 10k round. | jonglew | 24/02/2021 |
