Stob Coire an Lochain and Stob Binnein from Inverlochlarig, via Stob Invercarnaig. Followed path north to Bealach-eadar-dha Bheinn then pathless rough ground SW and S to head of Inverlochlarig Glen, eventually reaching track back to car park. Seemed longer than 14.1km!TRG31819/11/2023
Ben More, Stob Binnein & Stob Coire an Lochain from parking on A85.JasonStark26/08/2023
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.Lynnebe02/08/2023
After Stob Binnein , cloud now lifted. Delightful grassy ridge. Continue SE on faint grassy path to Munro Top no. 2.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 Gillianrichard6930/05/2023
