Participants: Just me.
Where: Thornliemuir, 237m/778', P 48m, Tump, OS 64, NS 465 590
I took the train to Neilston and walked from there, the only downside was that there was a steep downhill section near to the start down to the A736 and of course the equivalent uphill section at the end. Notwithstanding, it was a pleasant walk with a road then a track all the way to the summit. The track passed through Capellie Farm but there was no one about.....
The trig appears in the distance.....
The trig is just south of a wall in a field obviously populated by cows. But they were away in the distance today so I was able to stop and enjoy my lunch with good views all around. It was a bit hazy so the distant views were not so good although I could just make out Ben Lomond to the north .....
the Campsie Fells beyond Paisley and Glasgow were much clearer......
and the hills of Arran were faint on the western horizon.....
A pleasant spot, one of the high points in the Fereneze Hills.
