From east along tracks from the Ski/Biking parking. Long walk along forest tracks that could have been driven. Track to highpoint on west side, short pull over recent felling to upper slope and trig in a clearing. 6/8 HuMPN.Morters09/03/2024
An easy forestry road walk from the Wishach Hill ski & bike CP, eventually approaching Knockandy Hill from the W. Thankfully, most of the storm-fallen trees between track and open pasture had been cleared so a careful walk across left brash and along muddy tyre tracks was the only hazard en route to the summit and Trig. Returning to the forest road we headed up to the more straightforward Hill of Corskie, returning to the CP via the Gartly Moor forest road.summitter29/09/2023
From Leith Hall. Up to view point and then continue up and into field passing through a series of gates (mostly open) to the top. Great views of surrounding area.sarahk14/01/2023

From Leith House, up a lovely forest track towards a viewpoint. Through the gate at the top of the wood, across the field to a second gate at the field corner, and a pleasant grassy walk to the summit.LizH21/01/2020
From Leith Hall CP. Up to the viewpoint (nice through the woods). Fairly easy from there. With B and R.jenx29/12/2019
In Gartly forest testing out new mountain bike with my son. Decided to also climb up to trig point here.mcbboyd06/10/2019
Here for the trigpoint. TP:UK log: Lovely walk up from Leith Hall car park (NJ 54030 29813 - NT pay and display) to the viewpoint, over the fence at NJ 54201 30345 and through fence at NJ 54236 30391 (managed to squeeze under barbed wire) and over 'carole's gate' (NJ 54334 30609) then up through the sheep pasture and over old field boundary in gap in gorse at NJ 54459 30686, past a cut mark at NJ 54849 31347 (not sure what for as not in BM or OS database and too far from extant trig to be the original trig point). Over another fence to the trigpoint itself. #2 2019thejackrustles06/01/2019
