From W of Culloch, along track through reeds, across drainage ditch, through trees and along tracks through bracken to standing stone memorial (rather wonderful with a full moon rising beyond it), returning along grassy path to Culloch. | Nick Down1 | 26/12/2023 |
From the minor road to SE, parking on N side of western most bend, a bit on a bank, not the passing place further east. Through sparse trees, to highest point of oak trees. Then up through bracken, easy enough in winter, Then across a few damp bits, past juniper bushes to memorial stone at summit. | Minto | 25/11/2021 |
Parked the bike besides a gate on B827 below a ruined house NW of the summit. Hopped over a gate, crossed an open field to the ruin, then pretty much followed a ridge-line fence to the top. Lovely summit memorial to Shona & Jimmy | summitter | 13/04/2020 |
A quick bag, up from near culloch. | robertphillips | 22/01/2020 |
From Culloch.- Room to park car at entrance. Horrendous bracken. Nice top. | russell61 | 16/09/2019 |
Crossed on Scottish 6 Day, day 1 Auchingarrich. Probably not the fastest route! Tough day out: 5:30 up, 5 hours on starts, 2 hour+ run and 5k collecting controls. | nix_snilloc | 28/07/2019 |
Quick and easy from metal gate east of Culloch in early spring sun. May be a bracken issue in summer. | Topographer57 | 20/03/2018 |
From the bend in the road to the South (Culloch) and up a broad path which is clear of bracken to top with standing stone and good view of Comrie. Farmer at Culloch is a fine old fellow who pointed me in the right direction. | NormanW | 09/09/2017 |
Straightforward ascent from gate just east of Culloch. | JohnW | 11/06/2016 |
P entrance to Auchingarrach. Walked up road to just past Bishopsfauld. Strangely all the gates were open all the way to the top. S26B completed! | chrisbien | 24/04/2016 |
Number six of ten from Crieff. Same route as Lindsay, not pleasant as the pasture was completely pitted and churned by cattle. nice standing stone on top though. Onward route to Lurgan Hill was a mess of dead bracken | Colin Crawford | 29/12/2015 |
Parked beside bins just E of junction to N of hill. Walked S along road for short distance then followed wall/fence to top. | Lindsay M | 30/08/2015 |
Much better and quicker than expected. Path from Bishopsfauld to NW then easy pasture and grass to standing stone on top. | alda | 15/12/2014 |
