Can approach from the east or west. Coming from Dunsop Bridge (east) involves climbing up a steep hill towards the final part (Boundary Hill) which is 13% average with kicker in excess of 20%, so those who are less fit should approach from the west and why not give your legs a break by visiting Puddleducks Café at Dunsop Bridge. The 'trough' is a good scenic highlight, popular with cyclists and worth a trip out to.

Ha, ha, that's my video! We ran a competition featuring 20 climbs, the guy from Veloviewer built us a leaderboard based on our Strava times. Good times.

Beautiful views down through the Trough heading East/South and the heather in September/October is incredible.
