Parked at end of minor road leading to Hareshawhead farm, just past the gate, on the field (NS 7428 401) - squidgy! Mix of farm/forest/windfarm roads and clear fell/moorland to Martinside and Dunside Rig first. After which headed NNE aiming for a turbine at NS 7354 3766 to pick up a WF road and head NE up to here. Took a line NW on the return along what looked like a green lane on the map, but was nothing like it!! A 14k round over a mixture of easy tracks (45%) and bloody awful clear fell/moorland (55%). | jonglew | 03/02/2024 |

Parked at windfarm gate and walked up the track. | hillsman | 28/05/2022 |
Parked at wind farm entrance to NE, then up wind farm road. Flat summit area. Wind farm gate locked on return, so don't be tempted to drive up road. | vuirich | 02/04/2021 |
Solo. (Claire didn't summit). Parked at entrance to windfarm on Deadwaters to Coalburn road and followed track to highest point of road. Bitingly cold with wind chill making it feel like -10C. Flat summit area, so left path and wandered till happy nothing higher. Not easy in mix of rough grass and a few inches of snow. | MickyRoss | 09/01/2021 |

As Colin. Large wet flat area at the top. | chrisbien | 28/08/2015 |
Last of a five Tump round. Fairly easy ascent from the track to the south but lots of long grass and at the time of my visit the ground was muddy and well churned by recent cattle presence. The summit area, outwith the trees, is very flat | Colin Crawford | 08/08/2015 |
