Did this walk anticlockwise today to rebel against being told to walk clockwise to minimise erosion. I mean come on! Meall na Aighean W top, Meall na Aighean, Meall Liath, Carn Mairg, Meall a'Bharr, Meall Garbh E Top, Meall Garbh, An Sgorr, Carn Gorm. Also 2 swims, one at pool below rickety bridge & one in River Lyon at the allowed carpark. Enjoyed my rebellious walk.Lynnebe26/07/2023
The Glen Lyon Horseshoe from Invervar, following the estate instruction to do the route in a clockwise direction, taking in the 4 Munros and most of the Tops. Parking in the car park is now reserved for residents in the summer season, so all walkers must use the large layby 1 km to the west. Visited Carn Gorm, An Sgorr, Meall Garbh, Meall Garbh E Top, Meall Luaidhe, Meall a'Bharr, Carn Mairg, Meall Liath, Meall na Aighean E Top, Meall na Aighean, Meall na Aighean W Top.

Parked at Invervar. Started off cloudy was very windy on Carn Gorm. As we left the summit the cloud started to lift and break. The rest of the route was in glorious sunshine with a breeze and great views. We saw a Golden Plover, Meadow Pipits and Stonechats. Took in 4 Munro’s the 3 tops and deleted top. Cooled off in a muddy pond full of tadpoles and pond skaters. Only saw 2 people on the tops. Time taken 7 hours 20 minutes for 12.75 miles.isabelle18/08/2021
