Comrie/St Fillans- A couple of wooded Tumps

15 February 2019

Participants: Just me
Where: Cowden Wood, 145m/476', P 31m, Tump, OS 57, NN 776 199 and Ross Wood, 111m/364', P33m, Tump, OS 57, NN 753 211

It was just the weather for doing a couple of Tumps where I wouldn't get a view anyway- sunny but hazy. There are a number of small, wooded hills in the Comrie and St Fillans area and today I tackled two of them and had a look at a few others. Cowden Wood lies just off the B827 Bracco to Comrie road.....
 
 
I parked in the entrance to a wildlife centre, walked down the road, through a gate and across cow pasture to the trees.
 
Ross Wood is off a side road between Comrie and St Fillans. There was a convenient parking place opposite a stile into the wood. It was a gentle walk to the high point which is the southern of two knolls....
 
 
I then had a look at a couple of other Tumps but decided against- they were steep and slippery and looked most unpleasant..
