From corner of Lowther Park wood. Across summit. Down SE to gate onto the road.Moorponder31/12/2021
2/2 Parked at entrance to woodland, as others in for 70 yards, left then right up into trees at a yellow sign and straight to summit. Continued from summit down path back to track, contoured round hill on track to find suitable exit into meadow to climb up Wilton Fell. A pleasant 3/4 hour wander. The trees were full of moss a bit like a fairy grotto, I liked this woodland.nickywood128/08/2021
Hopped over low fence at southern corner of forest. Alfie stayed in the trees while I walked across the sheep field and back.Dangerous Dave18/06/2021
