[RWD version 1 ] Parking for a couple of cars at start point. Continue N up tarred road, and around a bend, watching for a stony track leading NNW up hillside on right.

The rocky path
This continues almost all the way up the steep slope to the broad ridge-like formation of the hill, although it deteriorates to a grassy, occasionally muddy trail near the top. Then continue NE up a gently rising slope across a mix of grass and heather, although not too bad.

Summit cairn
You will pass two false summits, both marked by cairns. A third cairn marks summit, although my GPS indicated the true highpoint was about 20m away on a mound, marked by a couple of stones.
