Drumduff (Cairn(s)) — Miscellaneous

Directions to Drumduff Cairn

Take the rough track at NX 0929 7737 on the A77. After c. 200 yards park up at a junction: there is a ditch in the road blocking further progress. Head c. 100 yards N along the track, go straight into a field. Head W alongside the fence, following the fence round a corner towards a dry stane dyke. The dry stane dyke heads WSW to the cairn on the summit of Carlock Hill. My route is viewable on Carlock Hill Cairn.
