This is the Cairnglastenhope trig point (312m) in Wark Forest near Kielder. You're going to need to do a canny bit of walking for this one with the trig point being around 6km from the parking, however it is predominantly on forest track.

Follow the map keeping to the clear forest track, then head into the fire break that is meant to be a track, looking left for the trig point. Then turn around and follow the path you came in on for a nice 12km bagging.

Thanks for checking out this place on the Fabulous North! I do enjoy a wander out in to the countryside trying to find hidden gems that not many people know about. You can't beat a rogue Pele tower up a remote hill or a mysterious stone circle or a stunning waterfall secluded in a forest.
