2nd of 8 sims between Dundurn clubhouse and bicycle left at ArdvorlichTopographer5701/09/2023
Useful track from South Loch Earn road up to 300 metresalda21/03/2022
Very convoluted ridge walk from St Fillans to Ardvorlich. Spent a lot of time avoiding peat hags filled with deep soft snow.daviemore27/02/2022
From Meall nan Saighdearan. Nice peaky little summit, good views. Rough ground initially going NW, then a bit better descending towards the house E of Fin Glen. Came down into the field E of the house at a gate, then out to the road at another gate at NN66999 23511 and W along the road to the car just beyond the Fin Glen track.LizH10/10/2021
Parked in Glen Artney church car park for a round of 12 Simms and 1 HF to the N and NW. 3/13PGCE18/05/2021
Easy continuation from Fuath. Descent a doddle... West Bank of Allt Fhuarchois. The orienteering map (SOA 2019 Scottish 6 days Dunearn) is useful but it does not show the path through the wood , again west side of the burn. No fences, while east of the burn there is that hateful chicken wire and barbed wire fence.fasgadh18/04/2021
5th of 5 Simms from Ardvorlich, returning to descend by Fin Glen on a glorious day. Will have to return for the final Simm along the ridge, Beinn Fuath.NormanW08/11/2019
13 top round starting stuc gharbh finishing beinn fuath from glen artney, biked up the glen for first 6 km.robertphillips21/05/2017
A big day from tent up track from head of Glen Artney. A round of the horseshoe including Meall na Fearna, the Graham Creag na h-Eararuith and 13 graham tops. Had hoped for some bounding along on grassy ridges but only got those towards end, the rest a bit messy with peat hags, numerous bumps and tops with multiple claimants to be the high point. had some issues with the forest in crossing to south side, now partly felled and I thought I could work through the felled section on what looked like a track from above. Always a mistake, should have gone round west end as originally planned.A good day nonetheless.dickscroop31/07/2016
From NNW, up thru wood E of Finglen, lovely cool sunny start to the day, slightly messy high level traverse to Fuath. Then E-W traverse of ridge taking in 6 Simms and a SubRHW10/04/2016
Long ridge from B. Vorlich start, return by road. Hot, cloudy, calm, good views.iangalbraith31/07/2013
