Grey Hill

Sub 2000s: Grey Hill

Date walked: 03/03/2024

Time taken: 1.25 hours

Distance: 5.6km

Ascent: 295m

Parked at the lay-by on the A77 just south of Girvan, and crossed the busy A77 to the track leading up to the mast, through a couple of gates and passed a sign for the Ayrshire Coastal Walk. The track leads up past the mast and a ruined cottage, and zags back gaining height at a sheep feeding bin. From here I headed across almost straight to the summit, over some rough tussocky ground and having to cross another fence, then steeper but smoother ground to the summit, which gave good views of Girvan and Ailsa Craig. rather than return the same way followed a good ATV track along the ridge in a southerly direction to a beallach, where crossing another fence led to a romp downhill through sheep pasture to the top of the uphill track then back to the car. Excellent short day walk.
