Up the stunning Alva Glen from the car park, crossing on to the west side and a steep climb to Mid Cairn. Pleasant grassy path to Bengengie Hill then a boggy crossing of the Balquhain Burn to a stone wall. A path on the west side of this wall leads straightforwardly to Colsnaur Hill then down to Myreton Hill. A SE descent over grassy hillocks eventually brought us to an ATV trail, which led down to a builders yard (I think) then Back Road. The walker friendly Back Road leads straight back to Alva Glen car park. 3 hours in total.summitter01/09/2019
Parked in Ochil Road the followed zigzag track through acres of brilliant yellow gorse. At Inchna First Burn took the second grassy path after the deer fence gate. Followed this all the way to the summit in pleasant sunny weather. Off to Myreton HillJubilado29/04/2019

Steeply down alongside fence to below the col height, but no need to enter the plantation. Stile at lowest point of fence. Path up to summit of Coalsnaur, forest fence to left, sheep fence and old wall to the right.Minto22/06/2017
Parked in Menstrie then up track before going off-piste to avoid gate and plantation to Myreton Hill. Then steeply down beside fence to climb back up to Colsnaur Hill, climbing a handy style halfway up. Then across to Bengengie Hill before descending the ridge to Mid Cairn [Craig Leith]. Then down to the sheepfold and across the dam back towards Menstrie with Jonathon, Norman, Nigel and Gavin.Dugswell222/06/2017
