From the quarry north of Dalwhinnie (NN 6363 8625). The Fara and its South Top first, then on down to here over easy ground. On to Meall Cruaidh. Retraced steps for the return. Just under 10k each way.	jonglew	04/06/2023
Up the estate track from Allt An't Sluic to 670m then over the Fara tops and on to Meall Cruaidh.	NormanW	21/07/2022

Track towards Allt An't Sluic Lodge, crossing the river just before the lodge and taking the new track, then footpath, to The Fara. Fast and dry terrain to the South top, Leacann na Sguabaich, and Meall Cruaidh meant that rather than returning to Dalwhinnie via the Loch Ericht road we reversed the route back. Great walk. 4.5 hrs total.	summitter	17/04/2021
