From Meall an Fhudair. Solo. | Nick Canute | 25/02/2023 |
On the way to Meall an Fhudair. | Owen B | 18/09/2022 |
Over from Meall an Fhudair in cloud. Dropped down steeply to Glen Falloch sometimes using the path and other times losing it. | Adrian | 30/08/2022 |
Parking was difficult, in the end tucked it in at the end of the rough road (NN 320 198), to the side of the cattle grid but not causing an obstruction. Then back along the road to Glen Falloch Farm where no parking is allowed, climbed over the locked gate and up the Hydro electric road to a small cairn at NN 310 199, from there a very hit and miss track goes up the NE ridge to Troisgeach. A delightful knoll and lochan trek takes one to the main summit of the Corbett, Meall an Fhudair. From here a fairly easy slope down to the bealach near .382, followed by a stiff but straightforward climb to the Graham, Beinn Damhain. Then a long curve keeping to the high ground round to the HF, Garabal Hill. Finally, an easy descent to the bridge over Allt Arnan at NN 296 181 and the hydro road back down. Mostly pathless but great 360 degree all round views (especially of Beinn Bhuide), so the 19km round with 1300m ascent took just short of 7 hours. | silveracorn_alan | 24/08/2022 |
I was lucky to squeeze into a parking space opposite Falloch farm. The initial walk up the hydro road was straightforward and the point at which to head up the ridge easily found. There was low cloud on the hills - an East coast haar strecthing this far west? It was hot and the pull up the indistinct ridge became progressively more tiring. As I neared the top I emerged above the cloud to magical views of big hill tops poking through the cloud. I also passed over this summit on the way back. | langskill | 23/07/2021 |
From Glen Falloch. On the way home, before the rain sets in, after 31 days away, bagging 180 Simms and numerous other summits in largely dry weather. | PGCE | 03/07/2021 |
From ENE, track then interesting ridge, 2nd of 2 quick singles before rain set in. Parking just N of bridge. Then home for a technical break after 4 weeks' Simms | RHW | 23/05/2021 |
from Glen Falloch via hydro track to Beinn Daimh then back via Meall an Fhudair and Troisgeach. | PaulineD | 29/04/2021 |

Up track from Glen Falloch, then by stream up to east ridge. Soon after leaving the A82 ignored new track for construction traffic that drops down under viaduct, staying on old track with bridge over the railway. | KeithByTheC | 01/09/2019 |
Done from Fyne car park. No doubt an excellent route choice but not on the hottest late August day on record. | Oh no I forgot... | 25/08/2019 |

From Glen Falloch farm via the east ridge | davidpettit84 | 20/04/2014 |
Much cloud all the way to summit which was actually quite hard to find in the cloud. I hope the cairn was on the right top. Combined with Maol Breach, an odd route choice but I was picking up tops I had missed and it worked out a nice day as the cloud cleared later. | dickscroop | 02/04/2014 |
