From the A87 above the head of Loch Ainort. There was a path alongside the burn; eventually I went up pathless slopes to find a good path on the broad ridge. I guess in descent this can be followed to the A87. Nice little conical top, good for trying to work out the best lines up the next one, Garbh-bheinn.pwheeler14/06/2016

With four friends. After staying at Kyle Y.H. High winds and mist on the Cuillins so we left the main ridge for another day. From the A87 road NG537265. We ascended almost to Bealach na Beiste and sheltered under a cliff to right for lunch. We ascended the NE ridge to the summit of Garbh-bheinn. The descent was via Druim Eadar Dà Choire. Misty on highest part. Windy.pwbellarby11/06/1983
