Meall a’ Chromhlain, accessed via footbridge at 333930 not shown on 1:50k map. Cross to Beinn Bhan using an ATV track to help navigate the bog. (This whole route is very wet and full of peat hags.) Carn na Larach to Carn dearg (N). Easy walking to Glas Charn, which has great views. Cross to bealach between Carn Dearg (N) and Meallan Odhar keeping a high line to avoid the worst of the hags. From Meallan Odhar to Carn Dearg (S) and then on to Carn Dearg Beag and Glas Bheinn by obvious route. Descent to track by going roughly south to hit track at point where the Allt na Glas Bheinne meets it. The terrain on this slope is very benign, especially when compared with the rest of the route! Back to car by following the track. There is now a small mobile phone mast (satellite?) at the lodge; the phone box lower down the glen has been removed. | sarahk | 02/05/2023 |
09/04/2023	Largely followed the route described on the Walkhighlands site, with a detour to the Simm of Meall Odhar added on. As has been stated below, there is a decent path after the sheep fank in Glen Turret, and a bridge over the Allt Eachach, before the sharp slog up the side of Teanga Mhor. Some decent gorges descending S from the second Carn Dearg. 15km, 4h | Rockdoctor | 09/04/2023 |
