From west, intended to walk on track all the way but deterred by dense cows so took a much more direct line, same as LizH, terrain mostly good.alda04/06/2024
Parked at the end of the road, N of Heights of Dochcarty, at NH5266 6206. Continued along the track to the first farm track heading right at NH5298 6250, up alongside the trees, through a gap in the trees and directly to the summit. Some boggy ground.LizH01/06/2024

Decent track from above Heights of Dochcarty. Saw 40cm+ diameter giant puffballs by trackside.willyross05/07/2019
From the road end to W. Used good track to approach summit from N.jimbloomer11/05/2019
6 of 6: Parked at 535606 just before the steep bend up to the distillery. Track bone dry. Lots of cattle with calves on it.ChrisR25/04/2019
Same as Jon and Carole except ground dry as a bone after recent drought! Also watch out for 3 aggressive sheep dogs when passing through farm buildings. However their barks were worse than their bites (which were fortunately non-existent!)AndrewFinnimore04/08/2018
Roadside parking (NH 5367 6058). Track from Drynie all the way to the top. Ankle deep slurry in places, unavoidable as cattle have seriously chewed up the ground either side to a mud bath; nasty. With Carole Engel.jonglew05/04/2018
Not a hill race. From Drynie.Martin R16/05/2017

Here for the trigpoint. TP:UK log: Bit of a slog up the hill through the farm but well worth it for the 360 degree views to Dingwall and Ben Wyvis, loved it, lots of livestock so dogs on leads or not at all.thejackrustles02/05/2014
