Great Christmas Day walk along the coast before cutting in land to find that point in a field of young winter barley which constitutes the summit!. Phil. Down the track to the tarmac road before heading East to find Whyntie Hillsarahk25/12/2020
Track from farm. High point in midst of barley crop so I was thankful for clear tractor lines over the summitColin Crawford20/07/2019
Walked alone. Started at home, followed track onto and then along B9139 then turned onto access road over Cowhythe Hill. Cut through field (just cut) then onto path down to Links Bay then returned home.187lenny02/09/2018
Following a pint or two in the Shore Inn we took the coast path to Strathmarchin Bay, taking in the wonderful Hobbit trail en route (check it out - ace laugh). We clambered up the cliff from the beach onto a cereal field. Wandered around the top ... the summit's probably just west of an old water tank on the track to Cowhythe farm/house.summitter16/04/2017
