From Croy Station, paths not roads all the way (apart from through Tesco car park). Google Streetview worked well. I preferred the views from the next field to the south of the summit. Then on to Glasgow for Steve Hackett...Pete R23/09/2022

Parked at Craigmarloch roundabout. Followed paths thro Cumbernauld Community Park to summit. From there walked to Cumbernauld Hill.bjewing02/02/2021
Satisfying walk from Tesco CP armed with pages torn out from A-Z to trig, back to HP, down to red bridge over M80 and up to Cumbernauld Hill's former HP at Blake Rd. Continued along ridge visiting all possible contenders. Being a damp foggy Sunday during lockdown felt safe to climb crescent feature. Returned to bridge and on to Tescos without any road walking at all.lordtonult10/01/2021
