Tosson Hill Trig Point

The trig point sitting on top of Tosson Hill (440m) #147.

Tosson Hill Trig Point

The best thing about bagging this trig point is that you get to spend a day in the glorious Simonside Hills. Sitting at 440m above sea level, you have around 250m of climbing to get to, but the views are well worth it.

You're best off parking at the main Simonside Forestry car park and then there is a track heading through the forest and up onto Tosson Hill.

Route map data could not be displayed.

Around 5km to the top and then you can either straight back down or extend your wander around the hills.
