Start the Stobshiel to Longyester route with a long but gentle climb southwards through cultivated land on a hill-path up to the col at 400m. This is followed by a rough ascent up Lammer Laws SW shoulder, to the top at 527m. The walk then joins another hill path, again at the col at 510m and descends northwards to Longyester. Finally, a long but picturesque return along very quiet country roads.
