Good parking NN 3232 1412 - layby. Ascent of Little Hills after initial track, pathless, rough - hard work. Circuit of Little Hills and Vorlich tops, returning over Stob nan Coinnich. Difficult descent in poor weather. Atv in lower reaches (approx. NN 316 145) led to ford over stream at NN 31761 14573 (a relief). This wound down to pass sheepfold and join outward track at NN 3211 1456. If reversing route, would be fork right on green grassy atv. | carole engel | 04/10/2020 |
First on circular route from Ardlui. Ascent would have been easier if we had picked up a track from further south on the road but parking would need to be further south of the path as landowner has made clear his parking wishes | Oh no I forgot... | 27/08/2019 |

Debs & Tali. From Ardlui. Parked opposite station underpass although sign in hotel says you can park in the compound/yard across the road. Route as per Pocket Mountains, Southern Highlands. Last bit of the descent fiddly. | Mountain Goat | 23/06/2019 |
From Stuckendroin then on to Little Hills West and Vorlich North Top for the David Batty Memorial walk.Down over the Munro to Inveruglas. | NormanW | 22/06/2019 |
From Ben Vorlich N Top, contouring around coire, then onto E Little Hill. Had to come back to W Little Hill, to contour round to Ben Vorlich S Top. Tough, almost pathless, traverse between the two Little Hills - probably covered twice the distance and twice the height which separates them, by the time I had worked around outcrops. My records show I have climbed these before, but I have no recollection of this terrain - perhaps my senior citizen body now struggles to do what was uneventful, 28 years ago. | Isbjorn | 22/06/2019 |

From Ardvorlich with Steve Smith. BV South Top first, then contoured round to here. On to the West Top. | jonglew | 03/12/2017 |
A circuit of BV's tops from Ardlui: Stob nan Coinnich Bhacain via the steepish grassy gully on the south - BV North Top - BV - BV South Top - an improvised traverse, helped by a deer track half the way to West Little Hill - East Little Hill - a descent ending in sustained wading through waist high grasses and bracken above Stuckendroin. | Nick Down1 | 09/09/2017 |

From Ardlui station, up Ben Vorlich and back down NW from the Little Hills. Had intended to take in Ben Vorlich S top after the Little Hills but a couple of route cock ups wasted time and I would have had to hitch back to Crianlarich with it getting dark. | dickscroop | 25/10/2016 |

Short solo break in Ardlui. 4.30pm drop off so flew up Ben Vorlich taking in Stob nan C. Bhacain and Little Hills in 4hrs. Path not distinct all the way up (blunder up from dam). There are problems getting off the NE end of Stuc na Nughinn. Interesting Munro though. | Mark Jackson | 17/07/2013 |

Cairngorm Club bus meet. I left the bus at Ardlui and walked on path past Garristuck and up towards Stob an Fhithick. Hence over Stob nan Coinnich Bhacain to 931m top of Ben Vorlich, and the main summit. I was alone so far. After waiting on the summit I met up with another club member. Together we went to trig point and went over Little Hills, down ridge to NE, and then to burn, following paths not shown on my map to near Garristuck, and thence Ardlui. Weather good. | pwbellarby | 04/10/1992 |
