| Same route as hils. Nice and simple. Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 30/10/2023 |
| 1/4 By bike on forest roads from NE by obvious route, after sleeping at Blackwater Bridge. Windy, sunny and warm. Lots of fungi. Stood on natural and artificial summits. Natural summit had just acted as toilet facility for someone - maybe one of the telecoms engineers who were dangling from the phone masts. | Rounsfell | 10/10/2023 |
| From point 218, plenty room to park. just followed track to transmitter, then found the trig and summit. 1 hour. | hils | 20/08/2023 |
| From NE. Main tracks OK, but many rides shown on 1:25 non existent when tried to head direct back to car. | davechaffey | 03/08/2023 |
| Walk in along track from NE but tried continuing straight on instead of taking the left branching track and then tried contouring to cut the corner as it was such benign open mossy woodland, but almost came unstuck, as higher up Vane across a patch of massive sell seeing of young firs that I suspectex may force a retreat. Fortunately it turned out to be manageable and short lived before easier terrain returned. From summit trug tried out the forest ride running north to get back on the guest road track. It was an easy sunny delight... A joyous walk | vegibagger | 02/07/2023 |
| Parked at NJ102569, followed track to trig point at transmitter tower, same way back | gary1981 | 07/01/2023 |
| Parked NJ 1020 5692. Followed track to mast. | PeteF | 18/10/2022 |
| Short walk from the Col on the road to the East. Hardly any hill climbing involved so very relaxing in the late morning sunshine. Nice to meet a fellow bagger on here. | nickywood1 | 14/09/2022 |
| easy along forest track, logging in progress | BLACKHILL | 14/09/2022 |
| From track junction at point 218 on Califer - Bognie road. Followed forestry track to trig and summit, passing a wondrous array of early autumn fungi. | Nick Down1 | 05/09/2021 |
| Evening cycle Part 1 starting at 101569 and following track to summit and trig point. | sarahk | 11/05/2021 |
| From 102569 following main track. Returned through the woods on rougher tracks. | sclater | 03/03/2021 |

| Mast track to summit then firebreak on the return. | Chris Peart | 18/05/2018 |
| A nice walk on the snowy track in the sun. Snow made the firebreak unappealing. | Gill | 30/12/2017 |
| Along the forest tracks with GHC. Found the trig point after a poke in the scrub. | Play2End | 28/10/2017 |
| With Chris, an easy walk with next to no ascent but walked around the satellite mast fencing in order to locate the trig hidden in the trees. | Peterb | 15/05/2017 |
| As per Peterb - the trig and surrounding summit area left a lot to be desired. | bowlesy | 15/05/2017 |
| From Forrest track to NE...easy amble. Kept to track the whole way, despite the summit area to south being felled, so much easier than cutting over or down forest breaks. Sunny. | N.Morters | 05/05/2017 |

| 1 of 2: From minor road near Califer 102569 | ChrisR | 27/09/2016 |
| Parked at end of track to NE. When E of summit, cut directly across felled area. Down via break running NE from summit. Route and write-up at: http://gayleybird.blogspot.co.uk/2016/08/hill-of-wangie-and-burgiehill.html | Gayle | 28/08/2016 |
| Self, Peter and dog. | Invicta14 | 15/08/2016 |
| A straightforward if dull hill walk. Note lots of tree felling going on intermittently. Tracks somewhat messed up by vehicles. Followed the track in, left and then right, circling the antennae interminably it seemed. After the summit a direct East line from the top lead more directly to the inward route. As said work on-going and this exit line may not be available for long. | nordicstar | 21/01/2016 |
| Possible to pick a short cut route through the forest. all getting a bit churned up though. | jenx | 21/01/2016 |
| Forestry tracks from NE at 102569 to the mast. Last of five summits for the day and under the red sunset I only just found the trig in time. It hidden just outside the mast enclosure close to its north corner. | Topographer57 | 28/09/2015 |
