After parking by the visitor centre car park, we took various trails and forest tracks to the edge of the trees. A short steep climb brought us onto the ridge. A good path led us west over the two summits along the heathery ridge. We returned to the forest edge, taking a zig-zag forest track back down to the car park.

Cloudy at first, with a strong easterly wind. Sunshine later. With BC and DB. Wheatears, and skylarks.
