The track comes to an end at this point. Cross the stream that flows out from the now drained and disused reservoir on the left. The stream lies directly in front of you. Walk up the embankment then cross the fence then the dry stane dyke wall right next to it. Walk to the end of the embankment then turn left to face the trig point obelisk which stands guard at the summit of Dunrod hill. You are nearly there!! You can just see it as the highest point mid shot. Word of warning here. If it's warm and damp with little wind then the midges can be nuisance at dusk. More likely to be a problem if you camp up here overnight. They are a special strain of midge known as the John Smeaton midge beause "they just set aboot ye". Without repellant or similar you will soon be "banjoed".
