5/5 A round from Hellifield Car Park. Up to Hellifield Haw, continue up Haw Lane, fork off left on footpath to climb then access Newton Moor Top Open Access Land, descend North onto the Langber Lane and use footpaths back to Lingber Hill, then down to the road and found a way up to Crane Field Hill by going to the lodge before the farm, through the gate to right of their drive and double back South West to go under first tunnel under railway (this avoids a nasty deep drainage ditch). Back on lane to Hellifield detouring at last railway bridge to pick up Waspber Hill from the West of the hill. 4 hours.nickywood103/02/2024

As others have mentioned there is a pull-in alongside a gate leading off the northern side of the main road. 1 minute to the summit from here.moorsman23/04/2021
Parked in the layby on the A65 east of Hellifield, went through the adjacent gate and simply up and down the field. (S)silveracorn_alan12/12/2020

After Hellifield, continued along road verge but then had enough of cars whizzing past me so climbed into field, one fence to climb then easy ascent to the top, accompanied by Baa baas. Nice view of Hellifield Law top. Descent Nw to reach lane that goes over railway then along lane heading for Crane Field Hill...Dazingdale12/09/2020
