Heading east doing TUMPs. With Bob. No cows. | Play2End | 26/12/2022 |
From hill of Alyth over roughish pathless terrain. No cairn, bilberry and heather. Superb views on evening stroll from Alyth campsite. | Denise | 16/09/2022 |
From Hill of Alyth, straight forward with 1BWF to cross. Rough cow pasture. High point un-marked. Descent E to road OK but roughish going over tussocks, broom and gorse. | RichardM | 16/09/2022 |
From Hill of Aylyth. Easy walk. Returned to car at Newton of Bamff by fields. | Adrian | 08/06/2022 |
Parked in Alyth and started on part of the Cateran Trail, then through a gate and across the corner of the wood and up to the summit area. Thought a point near the western end looked highest, but the area at the trees further east could be as high. Carried on to Hill of Alyth. | LizH | 30/11/2019 |
up from hp of minor road. | robertphillips | 06/09/2019 |
First snowfall of the winter so a crisp and deep and even round of the Hill's of Alyth & Loyal, then Barry Hill for good measure, from Alylth town centre. | summitter | 16/12/2018 |
From road pass, up and over a stile about 50m south of the cairn. It was clear enough to me that the summit is at the west end of the plateau but there are countless competing heath tussocks. | Topographer57 | 11/01/2018 |
Handy parking space just north of road col. Tolerable ascent, the high point rather indefinite. Interestingly, the pointless cairn is very prominent when viewed from Barry Hill | Colin Crawford | 03/11/2017 |

From B954 up and over barbed wire fence to summit ignoring old pointless cairn. | NormanW | 12/07/2017 |
With Ben after Hill of Alyth. Had to make detour over rough ground on way down to avoid a herd of cows and calves that didn't look very friendly. | hillsman | 12/07/2017 |
