DRC walk from start of forest track at NN 45295 27600. Track to NN 45128 27001 then pathless straight up NE ridge to summit. First part of ascent is through young trees, easy enough now but could be difficult in a couple of years. 
Pathless descent E then ENE to join hydro track at NN 45912 25208. Left main track at NN 45643 26019 and followed old track, part washed away by floods but a nicer and more varied walk than the main track. IMHO a much more pleasant route than the ordeal from Benmore Farm. | TRG318 | 10/09/2023 |

Ben More, Stob Binnein & Stob Coire an Lochain from parking on A85. | JasonStark | 26/08/2023 |
From Inverlochlarig, straight up Stob Coire an Lochain, Stob Binnein, Ben More, back over to Stob Coire an Lochain, peaks in the mist. On bearing E, but soon below cloud to lovely day. Over very craggy ground with path becoming more intermittent & faint as we headed over Creag a Bhragit, Meall na Dige, Stob Bealach na Frithe to Stob Creagach. Steep in places & awkward Crags. Return SW below na Frithe & contoured Meall na Dige to reach SE ridge. Narrow path to Meall Monachyle but petered out on descent. SW down long grass, climbed deer fence into thigh deep grass through new forestry, with deep holes. Awful but short. Reached wall running E to W. Crossed it & turned W on rough track that ran to fence & turned S vaguely to gate near cattle grid at 460192. Great walk, but final descent needs some work! 21km, 1800m ascent, 8.5 hrs, 7 moving. | Lynnebe | 02/08/2023 |

My 50th Munro this year. Solo. From verge parking on A82 by Ben More Farm. Through (signed) gate, go left up track , til see stone steps up grassy ridge off track ( signed). Somewhat tedious slog uphill in cloud and midges to suddenly emerge above a sea of cloud with only Ben More and the tip of Ben Lui above, In brilliant sunshine. Trig. Continue on ridge to Stob Binnein and then the two Munro tops. | Denise | 01/06/2023 |

Offroad parking by Benmore Farm. Up track until signed path steeply uphill to the trig summit. Good path all the way. Down S ridge to Stob Binnein and Stob Coire an Lochain before returning to Bealach eadar dha Bheinn for a descent W to the river - path establishes itself after a few hundred meters of boggy ground, handrailing one of the tributaries. Another hot sunny day and good views with time for a paddle to cool off at the end. With Gillian | richard69 | 30/05/2023 |
Started a bit cloudy and a bitterly cold east wind gave rime on every blade of grass towards the top. Later the clouds dispersed and it was much warmer out of the wind. | Cumbrianexile | 28/02/2023 |

From layby on A85 signposted way up. | colinfielding | 31/07/2022 |
Parked at the layby on the main road and followed the path to the cairn summit. Planned on doing more but my pals were put off by the mist. | JAdair97 | 30/07/2022 |
