Duniewick

Directions to Duniewick Hillfort: Take the B7044 Colmonell turn off the A77 on the S end of Ballantrae. This road is narrow with very few passing places. Follow the road for c. 2.8 miles to reach Finnart Cottage. There is a muddy parking space c. 50 yards E on the left side. Knockdolian path starts c. 30 yards E from here. The path climbs steeply NW up a field towards a gate which leads to Knockdolian summit ridge. Walk N past the gate following the fence line into rough pasture. Duniewick Crag is visible NW from here. Head W towards a dry stane dyke then follow the dyke N for a gate in the NW corner of the field. A rough track starts here heading clockwise round the crag. A steep ditch starts in the SW corner of Duniewick Crag. Follow the ditch to the centre of the W flank where an angled rock slab provides a path up to the summit plain of Duniewick Hillfort. My route can be viewed on Duniewick Hillfort.
