Parked at church. Gate at top of churchyard leads to ROW. ROW and permissive path to summit. | PGCE | 18/12/2021 |
Parked just below the church, went through churchyard and out the gate at the top end & turned right to bring me to the lane by the vicarage. Then followed this lane up the hill before turning right along a lovely trail through the trees to the summit point. Nice and peaceful here so relaxed & enjoyed the tranquility for a while :-) | Gerry the Ranger | 16/11/2020 |
After Chase Wood Hill, Hill FM, LOts of notices about access n=but once in the woods, paths plentiful and delightfully along ridge top. There seemed to be a lot of ground within that 20 m contour. Returned to Ross via Lawns Fm. A nice walk, with CW Hill. With Pete/ | pwheeler | 01/08/2020 |

With Chase Wood Hill, by the light of dusk | nordicstar | 03/10/2017 |
From Weston under Penyard, up lane and into pleasant woodland. Just before exiting woodland a track heads off right running parallel with edge of fields and to the high point. No views this time of year due to dense foliage.. | Campbell Singer | 18/08/2017 |

From Chase Wood Hill on ROW, then found previously mentioned MTB tracks without difficulty. No views of anywhere though, so a bit disappointing. | milimana | 15/07/2017 |
From Chase Wood Hill on FPs and then single track MTB path to north of fence all the way to summit. HP few metres north of path. | PeterD | 14/04/2017 |
From the church, large car park (not for the public!). Mapped paths then permissive along edge of woodland to top. Yew 2m or so N of path, must be 150m E of OS 200m spot height. | jonglew | 18/03/2017 |
base of yew in coppice a few m n of permissive path along ridge. Foggy and mild. | Denise | 08/01/2017 |
Woodland paths from Merrivale, good path in open woodland of Beech, Oak, Sweet Chestnut and firs along ridge. A mild, misty morning, trees dripping. | RichardM | 08/01/2017 |
Similar to Arranc. Parked by the fork in the road at SO63056 23190 and walked up track to gate at SO 62226 22920. Across a couple of fields and then climbed fence into woods where I found a good path which more or less crosses the summit. Followed path back to the point where I climbed the first gate so this is perhaps a better route than to trespass across the farmland. A sign in the woods suggests a fairly enlightened view towards public access. | Herbert Anchovy | 28/09/2016 |
From industrial estate, up on good tracks. Saw Wild Boar near the top. | rhalstead | 31/07/2016 |

From wnw, Penyard Lane, good paths, winter evening. Hp N side of woodland path. | RHW | 30/01/2016 |
Delightful walk from the west in still misty mild November Monday. Right girl at base of hill then within 50m our so there is a path left, not marked on even the 1:25k that climbs steeply up to the crest and continues east just about20/25m inside the woodland to the north of the open field. This continues to the highest point. With Colin Henshall from Tewkesbury. | vegibagger | 02/11/2015 |
By church and past Lawns Farm, over a gate and up to top over grass with cattle. | arranc | 26/08/2015 |
