Cycle tour of forest from Devilla car park.Topographer5719/12/2023
Parked Devilla Forest carpark then headed north on forest road. Decided to follow path round north side of Peppermill Loch-big mistake-Nature is reclaiming this with waist-high grass, chest-high brambles and head-high gorse and broom. An alternative route keeping to the better trod path rather than heading to the loch may lead to a surfaced forest track may be possible. Returning south from summit at the track junction a path lead south to the lochside but the path westward along the north shore then over the dam was not too bad. At the end of the path over the dam return to the carpark was possible by a variety of routes. Zig-zagged back on different tracks using a downloaded copy of a route map.Jubilado13/07/2023
From track to NW just W of .73 on A907. Down track into woods, left & left again & at easy summit. I was tempted by the wee path N to avoid returning by same route. This started good, swung E and got worse. Came to wall, double poled elec line then back onto same track. Killed a few ticks. Should have stayed on forest track, but it was stony & I can't resist an explore.Lynnebe07/05/2023
Another easy walk in from Devilla carpark, Mikey in the backpack again but he walked the last few meters to the summit. Rather unispiring summit but nice enough for a quick picnic in between showers.Blair51207/01/2023
As others, parked at junction to N.duchally21/02/2022
An apt walk for a January day. Both Peathill and Righead Hill from the Devilla Forest Car Park on the A985. On good forest tracks 3 hours total.Crumblie209/01/2022
From west (parking at NS 93055 89066) via Peppermill Dam. Tracks / paths all the way to the summit. On to Maggie Duncan's Hill trig point next.Fife Walking07/02/2021
Short detour from a bike loop out of Clackmannan. A road goes up to the summit from the south and it is a ride up.fasgadh28/08/2020
Followed the track from the A907, then along the edge of a ploughed field, over small dyke/fence, across old brash and newly planted replacements to a summit with the remains of an old building on top. 20 mins there and back.summitter17/04/2020
2 car layby on minor road to N. Edge of cereal field then boggy, wet, cleared forestry crap to summit.Thearlaichdubh21/10/2019
P road junc to N. Track goes most of the way, then tried going ESE along edge of cultivated area (which falls far short of the edge of the actual field)to reach FB shown on 1:25k. Not too bad, but nothing really gained either, so from top straight down NW to rejoin track.agentmancuso01/09/2019
From the big car park at NS964871. Bike along good tracks.Pete R09/12/2018
Same route as richtea. Then onwards to Righead Hill.russell6116/10/2018
An easy but long walk on forest paths from the main Devilla car park.richtea504002/10/2018
From the main Devilla forest car park following FC roads all the way to the summit. Longer than the northern route but avoids all difficulties.hillsman08/06/2018
from road junction to the north.robertphillips24/02/2017
From minor road junction on A907. Not a great route as the track runs out amidst muddy, ploughed fields. Fence bog and windthrow then created obstacles to the topColin Crawford18/02/2017
P track NW of hill. Track all the way to the top. Minto's tree has been removed. Great weather but lots of phlegm.chrisbien08/04/2015
From the road junction and up the track to the forest.Play2End19/02/2015
Cycled from home. Easy access along the forest roads. Track blocked near summit by fallen tree. Interesting old compound to SW of summit.Minto26/10/2013
