As others from the business park, along the track E below the hill, then turned onto a lesser track (NG8452 2703)heading across towards the summit. Picked our way through brash and rough ground, not a great route, but good views. | LizH | 28/09/2023 |
FRom Nostie. Quite a struggle! With B and R | jenx | 28/05/2023 |
Tough terrain once off the forestry track leading from the SE corner of the business estate. Directly up and down probably quicker, if steeper. | summitter | 27/05/2023 |
Enjoyable wee Hump to fill an hour of the evening in with after the superb RHSoc outing earlier in the day across to Scalpay and The Crowlins. | Alex C | 26/05/2023 |
I saved this gem for a fine day. Used Campbells route up and down with success. | Chris Peart | 25/05/2023 |
From Business Park. Bulldozer track east and then at second track forked sw. Awful track but the best option of a bad lot. | Campbell Singer | 08/05/2023 |
Ditto Jim F from NNW starting at business path, but first coordinate should surely be 27032, and I could not find even a sketchy path up the steep cleared hillside. Bulldozed track so deep in debris that it was hardly usable. | Topographer57 | 25/06/2019 |
From the business park. The whole hill has been logged with a bridge leading to a rocky gravel road alongside the dyke surrounded by forestry waste. From NG 84035 26072 a sketchy path heads SW to NG 83923 26905 where a bulldozer track goes close to the summit (this only found in descent). | Jim.Fothergill | 20/05/2019 |
from the SE. | robertphillips | 17/03/2018 |
Vague quad track heading approx. S from below summit helps but probably very difficult to locate on ascent (it reaches the road just W of rock outcrop between last two houses but is overgrown with bracken) | Tony S | 29/07/2017 |
From nnw, business park, steeply up thru open woodland, couple of stones in heather at hp. Satnav route! | RHW | 22/07/2017 |
Not quite a quick and easy grab as expected. Must be worse when bracken in full vigour.Good view though. BBRW | Martin R | 10/03/2016 |
From SE | jimbloomer | 07/05/2015 |
Very rough ascent from the south. Lots of false summits, far too many for a 130m hill. Foul weather. | fasgadh | 14/02/2012 |
