Tips

Bengairn is a 391m summit overlooking Auchencairn Bay and Rough Firth. With over 150m of prominence it is classified as a Marilyn.
Bengairn is usually climbed with its near neighbour Screel Hill which with better paths is easier to get to.
To reach Bengairn from Screel Hill you have to find the path, for there is one. You just need to find it.

This is a great place to stop and look backward on your climb to Bengairn summit and enjoy the wonderful views across the Solway Firth. There are also some old ruins here, there is no information on the history, but it's a fascinating place to discover on your hike.
