The green belt up to Slackdhu is located to the left side of the black Craig's.
As a starting point I choose the wee church at the Campsie den Road which I followed up direction Dumgoyn before heading up to the cliffs of Slackdhu always direction to the big green strip.
It is a steep gras ascent until the first plateau from here it eases quite a bit off. Here you can decide between 3 main options: a) a gras strip b) a wee gully (7-8m)and c) a bigger gully (20m?)

In the video I went up the wee gully.



It is probably to mention that this hike is best done in dry conditions as most of it is hiking on steep gras.
