What visitors say

Kelley Ritson

Hard but very enjoyable walk up to Mither Tap. Some steep paths and very uneven surfaces. Stunning views from the top and very windy at the top.

Fabrizio Oddo

Beautiful walk up the very top (quite steep in places). A few trails available (see attached picture for map). Visitor Centre open until 16.30. Plenty of parking spaces (£2 for 2h, £3 for 3, £4 all day).

Beautiful spot to come for a lovely walk around and get a wee refreshment afterwards. Toilets are clean and the visitors centre itself is full of information!
