Windfarm or way marked trail?

by TommyV 12 Jun 2019

Started at the forest entrance as mentioned by scapania. It's worth mentioning that the area is now a windfarm so I'm not sure on what the story with access is as it is still an official way marked trail but there was a notice stating that the trail is currently closed!. We followed a forest road for about two kilometres before heading off onto the open mountain in a North West direction for about 500 metres. The ground here is deep spongy heather and makes for very tough going. The summit is very unremarkable and marked with a white plastic pole.
