A round of the Silver Jubilee Road - currently without any forestry work taking place. Easy ascent through well spaced trees from the road. At the moment the road is in good shape for views, especially over Talla Reservoir.fasgadh06/08/2023
From the rig, straight down through the worst pinewoods imaginable. Was covered in pine needles. Easy crossing the stream and then up through a firebreak before wandering the woods to the summit.JAdair9719/04/2023
From parking near menzion farm, biked up the track, then up through the FB and trees to the top.robertphillips27/11/2022
Verge parking near Menzion Farmhouse, just before locked gate (NT 0922 2334). Logging track (Silver Jubilee Road) till due E of the top, good break WSW then an easy passage through mature conifers to a small clearing. Returned via breaks to meet lower track just S of Menzion.jonglew18/06/2022
Followed Toby and Dion route. The veiw from the Silver Jubilee road is amazingAndrew Simmons22/04/2022
Parked easily at gated end of Silver Jubilee Road at 08960 22971. Clockwise around same road, to fire break at 10655 21520. Up the fire break to its highest point, then faint path north to summit. Sunlit, tiny clearing near top.Toby-and-Dion08/05/2021
From Menzion Farmhouse using Silver Jubilee Road. Directly up through the tress from 1062 2163.chrisbien06/08/2017
From Menzion, via The Rig, though firebreaks down to the glen are a bit sparse in new plantings. Mature trees on the ascent from Menzion Burn made it a very steep but fairly easy route. Small clearing on top, though high point may be just into the trees on the south. I really should have added Colin Hill as an eponymous topColin Crawford25/08/2016
