| From Ecclesgreig caravan park, walked W along road (detouring through Lochside) to just past small wooded area N of hill, then took track uphill to near summit. | 187lenny | 12/07/2022 |

| The delights of this hill are its foot with the 3 mile long St Cyrus beach -a National Nature Reserve of cliffs, dunes and beach, renowned for its birds, sheltered grasslands, rare flowers, butterflies and 200+ species of moths. Many species being at their northerm limit in the UK. This stretch of coast is on National Cycle Route 1 - Shetland to Dover- which must be some ride, and you get to glimpse Hill of Morphie. | Chris Pearson | 22/10/2019 |
| Weather fair. | MountainMac | 07/06/2019 |
| A spot of summit vegetation to negotiate. Otherwise, straightforward. | summitter | 25/01/2019 |
| Good (unmarked) track from North almost to summit | Tony S | 26/01/2017 |
| Strange that this one hasn't been claimed. Easy from the road, along the farm track then up the edge of a ploughed field. Summit is buried in a mess of gorse and broom but not too troublesome | Colin Crawford | 08/05/2016 |
