Parked at the little car park in Drumelzier, up the dead-end road to the SE of the village just past the shed. Great walk over 7 tops, easy underfoot, sunshine all day, pity about the wind. | nicolajane | 19/03/2022 |
After breakfast Frances and I drove to Broughton and then to Drumelzier. It was a bright but chilly blue sky day with a moderate wind. We walked up the track to Pykestone Hill. I was not moving particularly quickly and I also underestimated how close we were to the top of Pykestone Hill. From the trig point on top of Pykestone Hill we followed the fence line over Grey Weather Law and Long Grain Knowe and out to Middle Hill that was the second Donald of the day. As we swung round from Pykestone Hill to Drumelzier Law we were no longer walking into the wind. We doubled back towards Drumelzier Law via Glenstivon Dod. Smoke drifted over the hills from the Manor valley. We descended over Dulyard Brae and Logan Head and down Finglen Rig back to Drumlezier. On Dulyard Brae we passed a family group walking up the hill. | langskill | 19/03/2022 |

I went south today to get three Donalds and a Donald Top from Drumelzier in the Scottish Borders south east of Biggar. 
I walked up Den Knowes to the 1st Donald, Pykestone Hill (737m) then north east to the Donald Top of The Scrape (719m). Followed by a traverse back over Pykestone Hill to the 2nd Donald, Middle Hill (716m) when the fog finally cleared to give great views toward the Lowther Hills, Culter Fell and Tinto. Then a walk over to the 3rd Donald, Drumelzier Law (668m), before descending Finglen Rig back to the start point in Drumelzier village, 05:30hrs all in. 
I made the mistake of take my canvas hiking boots so my feet were soaking, but it was still enjoyable day out, as I got a view later on. | chillyman8 | 25/07/2020 |
