| From large layby on A49. Permissive bridleway over farmland and through woods to summit. High point a messy area of open deciduous woodland with brambles and colourful with wood anenomes, bluebells, celandine, dogs mercury, primrose, lords & ladies and violets. According to a Countryside Stewardship notice parking is permitted at SO5223,6603 accessed along driveway immediately to WNW. | RichardM | 27/04/2021 |
| From SO 5387 6523 near The Wood Farm. A v pleasant circular stroll using FPs through fields with some magnificent oak trees - and the most convenient way of gaining exercise combined with the journey to designated covid vaccination centre. | summitsup | 05/02/2021 |
| ROW from very busy A49 | vegibagger | 04/11/2020 |
| 5th tump of 8 today on a car bagging foray into West Worcestershire and this just over the border in Herefordshire. Parked in layby then via blocked ride to mown field edge. Followed field edge curving round to gate then on track, veering off across pasture to reach bwf into woodland. Steeply up to the top to mown grassy path with another Hp candidate about 15m further on. Checked pasture but lower. Followed nice track in woodland to easily drop back onto the good track. I took a different field edge back to mown field edge . | Dazingdale | 19/08/2019 |
| Up from A49, just one easy electric fence. Summit path clear and dry. Fox near summit. Very fine views on the way up and lovely woodland. | fasgadh | 13/08/2019 |
| Parked short of Wood farm , amazingly the summit track had been cut and was free of brambles etc. | Adrian | 02/08/2019 |
| From lay-by on A49, along field edges, then across pasture to reach gate and path up the hill which eventually led to HP. | PeterD | 05/04/2019 |
| Similar route to clivevilla. Parked in lay-by south of where the ROW leaves the A49 - then access road and field edge to meet concrete farm track. When this ran out made for diagonal across pasture to stile and the gate into wood was a little beyond this. Woodland paths clear and easy and not as muddy as feared. | milimana | 28/01/2018 |
| Similar route as others. Paths through the wood were wet, churned up by horses and a bit overgrown but passable. High point in edge of wood, close to the path. | Herbert Anchovy | 09/06/2017 |
| From A road junction to N, poor paths to top. | rhalstead | 20/05/2017 |
| From WNW: N along A49 to RoW, which was blocked by several electric fences, not live. Woodland much the best part of route, Herefordshire downy bramble quite easy going. Summit by small path just inside wood. | RHW | 13/02/2016 |
| From A49 on bridle path to foot of ridge, then on muddy track to top of wood and N to HP. | arranc | 31/12/2015 |
| Parked in layby on east side of A49 a little south of track towards ridge. The woods are quite brambly unless you are on a path but most of the paths follow the contours. I went to the left on hitting the wood and, after a while, there was a path up to the right, then back along the top of the wood. Top is a bit brambly too but high point of this path looks as good a point as any. | clivevilla | 31/10/2015 |
