Followed Minto's excellent directions. A couple of fences to climb to get into summit pasture. Decided summit (spot height) is in rough pasture to the east so another fence to climb.. | govanah | 09/10/2020 |
Linked by a rough cross country route from Kockinglews from the Stone Circle cp, then back again - 4 miles. The Danish company Green Team with a local base in Inverurie have planted acres of (currently)shin high seedling Christmas trees -row after row of them, to replace the December harvest. Handy waist high cut gap in the deer fence to get to field before the summit rough pasture (over another easier fence). | Chris Pearson | 20/02/2020 |
First of a three Tump cycle from The Cabin E.C. From the end of the tarred road to the SE. Good parking. Three tracks go NW towards Braco steading. Middle one is gravel track - do not use. Take E most track in forest, which runs up parallel, and dog-legs round onto the line marked on 1:25K map. 8ft wire fence gate across road blocks access to field. Roll under the netting and follow track round left, through the Xmas tree farm, to the summit pasture. | Minto | 20/04/2019 |
