| White Coomb is the highest point on a long branching ridge that runs from Carlavin Hill (736m), overlooking Talla Reservoir in the north, via Molls Cleuch Dod (785m), Firthybrig Head (763m), Firthhope Rig (800m) and White Coomb to Carrifran Gans (757m) in the south. The southern region of this long hill is very craggy in places.
The easiest ascent is from The Grey Mare's Tail (waterfall) car park on the A708 road from Moffat to Selkirk, from where a path leads through crags to the summit. However, given the structure of this mountain it should be treated as a ridge walk if transport can be arranged. |
