As part of the bike ride round the south of the Island, down to the car park behind the dune and up the track, to the high point. Doesn't take long, dune a little slippery on the sand. Then on to Ben Feall.nickywood121/04/2022
Parked at the RSPB car park, up the little path onto the top of the sand dunes and along to the highest point. Continued on through the dunes and to Ben Feall.LizH23/08/2019

Start of a circuit to Calgary Point on the fatbike. Visited both tops, giving a good ridgewalk with some exposure where there is a big blowout . This hill is a changing feature but well vegetated in most places, could only take one storm though.fasgadh02/08/2019

Straight up on to the dune by the obvious path at the back of the RSPB car park, then left to the summit. Northwards along the ridge to the second top (just in case the wind alters the shape of the dune again!). Back down and along the track towards Ben Feall. Sunny but quite windy: being sandblasted on a summit ridge was a new experience!mainnirnamfiadh08/10/2015

So, if sand dunes count then what happens after the next big storm that changes the location? Grand views.Martin R11/05/2014
