Signed path by Tumore very heavily overgrown and indistinct. Probably best to avoid in bracken season! Better after about 400m and then leads to a very fine viewpointTony S17/09/2023
Parked at a layby across from Tumore. through the gate signposted path to nedd. Not at all easy to follow the path lower down. but it soon gets clear. left the path at an old fence. wonderful viewpoint.hils06/10/2021
