From the windfarm parking area onto Carroch Hill trig and then tussocky grass to summit, from here onto Greengair then a loop E and SW past the N shore of the unnamed loch to Carroch and the road back to the car. My 99th D&G hill | Wayne Mac | 04/05/2023 |
Parked at gate for the Wether Hill wind farm (NX 6904 9221), it was unlocked, could have driven a lot of today's walk. Followed wall N ~250m to pick up the terminus of a new unmapped wind farm road, followed this round to Carroch Hill trig pillar, then rough hill pasture to the hill top. Rejoined the road and on to Greengair -> Martour Hill -> Wether Hill -> Corrodow trig pillar -> Car. A pleasant 10 mile round. | jonglew | 16/04/2021 |
