Picture: SE Ridge central and trig pillar skyline right.
There is parking for two or three cars at around A (SH43770 47451) . Start from here over rough moorland towards the summit. The summit area is a ridge extending from the top to the SE. The top can be reached by circling around a rocky spur on the SE ridge.
