Climbed with Johnny, James, Alistair and Milly. Long, boggy slog from Lawers Hotel to Lochan nan Cat and up Raven's Gully to summit and same way back due to time and fear constraints.Skerryvore17/10/2023

As part of circuit - Beinn Galas, Ben Lawers, Meall Greigh, Meall Garbh, An Stuc, Ben Lawers and Meall Corranaich. 7hrs car to car, 27.8km, 2300m.Ennoch14/06/2023
From the hotel, nice path above the east bank of Lawers burn, crosses to west bank at 450m and reaches hydro development at 600m. From here it become softer and less distinct. The unconstructed path up from Cat Lochan to Lawers-Stuc col is steep, slippery and worn out. SSW ridge on to summit is OK but my general impression was that a start point in Glen Lyon would have been better.Topographer5725/05/2023
Part of the Ben Lawers 7 not keek on going down the scree, probably better to climb it.colinfielding09/05/2023
Round from Balmenoch - Meall a' Choire Leith - Meall Corranaich - Ben Lawers - Creag an Fhithich - An Stuc - Meall Garbh - Creag Roro spot height (not on any lists) - Balmenoch. Will come back for Beinn Ghlas, aborted due to wind/snow/low visibility.screeleep11/04/2023
Parked in the lay-by about 1/4 mile east of the hydro track. Followed the hydro to the small dam. From there headed up to the col between Meall Garbh and Meall Greigh. I did an out and back to the summit of Meall Greigh. It was a bit boggy and the summit was in the clag. Then up Meall Garbh to the summit cairn again in mist and quite windy although it was dry. I was slightly wary of the ascent up An Stuc but it was very easy. The hardest part was the descent to the Lochan as with all the rain it was extremely slippery so had to take it steady. In dry conditions it wouldn’t have been a problem. Path from Lochan to the small dam at the end of the hydro was very boggy. Time 7 hours 15 minutes for 17 miles.isabelle25/10/2022

A trio of munros, Meall Greigh, Meall Garbh and An Stuc. Parked for free at Tombreck and walked up the pipeline track before completing the standard loop. Clear summits and very scenic walking throughout. Solo.meltdiceburg24/08/2022

Solo anti-clockwise round of Meall Greigh, Meall Garbh and An Stùc (how is that last one even a munro?) from Lawers Hotel. Arrived at the hotel early and popped the fee into the box, then set off down the road. The route up from the bone carver up through the forest and then up beside Lawers burn was quite pleasant, and a good warm up for the ascent up Sròn Mhòr and onto Meall Greigh. Took some sunrise photos and moved onto Meall Garbh - the re-ascent was fairly short - passed someone in a bivvy on the summit. Ascent up An Stuc wasn't as bad as it appeared - barely needed to use my hands, and the descent down the lochan also fine. Got back to the car a sweaty mess, but quite satisfied - total time 5h 17minmproudfoot11/07/2022
After Meall Garbh. Most interesting of the seven. Good fun scramble to the summit.JAdair9728/05/2022

Parked at The Silage Pit at Ben Lawers Farm (not as bad as it sounds): £5 fee in honesty box. Up track beside Horn Carver, pleasant path to dam, off-piste north to ridge and along to Meall Garbh. Followed path along to An Stuc and Creag an Fhithich. The scramble up An Stuc was quite do-able for an oldie like me, on a fine day - wouldn't like to descend it poor conditions. Back to bealach and returned via south side of Lochan nan Cat to dam and ascent route.TRG31801/09/2021

7 munros of Ben Lawers range. Started at Lochan na Lairige, ended at Ben Lawers hotelhummusg17/06/2021
A fine traverse of the Ben Lawers ridge from west to east, starting from the NTS car park. Visited Beinn Ghlas, Ben Lawers, Creag an Fhithich, An Stuc, Meall Garbh, and Meall Greigh. As I was solo with just the one vehicle, I had to return along the access road for the water intakes and then traverse across open country under Ben Lawers and Beinn Ghlas. 25km with 1600m of ascent in 9 hours.

Beautiful day on the hills. Nice little round of 5 starting at meal greigh and finishing with beinn ghlas. Definitely ones to return toNicky C28/09/2019
Meall Greigh, Meall Garbh and An Stuc. Parked at The Ben Lawers Hotel (£5 unless you buy a meal). Fantastic clear views at Meall Greigh but by the time I'd got to Meall Garbh it was cloudy and drizzly. Bit of a scramble up to An Stuc. It was still wet and cloudy by the time I got to Bealach Dubh so decided not to carry on to Ben Lawers. By the time I got down to Lochan nan Cat (down a very steep path) it was all clear up the top. 8 hours in total.tsharp16/09/2019
After much deliberation and route planning on the way down to the col from Meall Garbh we climbed up the path on OS mapping. Thankfully climbed in good conditions with dry rocks but with a heavy rucksack. However, still very steep with loose rocks and mud, not helped by recent small rockslide halfway up. Narrow ledges in places, walking poles stowed in favour of hands on rock.Canny26/07/2019
