Roadside verge parking just NW of entrance to Biggarshiels (NT 0593 3980). Field gate into sheep pasture and round E and N of Ewehill Plantation. Came back down through Biggarshiels and estate roads, large electric gate for access to the 702, but it opened at a touch. | jonglew | 14/02/2023 |
From the west and around to the south of the hill to avoid the forestry fence. Back along the ridge through the woods. 
Very uncomfortable encounter with locals on the way in. Not friendly. | fasgadh | 15/10/2022 |
Parked to NW near Strawlaw. Straight up climbing over deer fence on the way. | Andrew Simmons | 06/05/2022 |

parked at farm backshiels, from the east. | robertphillips | 23/12/2017 |
