From standard c park for munros…as you start to gain height, the path becomes muddy atv. It then splits….have confidence, it goes the correct way. A solid bridge over burn. It will now be muddier….and will assist quite a bit of way up hil. I aimed for bealach and took bearing. G Charn top was more complex that imhad thought….many deer. Same way back down.VerySlowPlodder23/07/2022

From South top. Windy and in cloud at top. Getting views occasionally.187lenny16/09/2018
After the 529m S top. Then to Sgurr a' Choire Ghlais - took low level route crossing Coire at 500m, as didn't fancy battling across munros against blustery rainy strong cold westerly (and no designs on a 2nd round..) This saved a bit of climbing overall.RHW24/05/2015
Ascended from Sgurr na Ruaidhe. Good views west along Strath Farrar.JohnW29/07/2013
