Circuit starting near bridge over River Farigaig and Dunmaglas. Walked along road to reach track running S by River Nairn. Followed this to about 550m then headed off to climb Beinn Acha' Bhraghad. Continued to Carn Ghriogair North Top (very flat), Carn Ghriogair, Coille Mhor, Beinn Bhuidhe. Descended SW to join track but found ford at bottom was too fast and deep after heavy rain. Pitched tent above the ford and crossed in the morning to continue on S side of Beinn Mheadhoin and track back to start point. Breezy, wet and rough walking, with a small amount of snow on the higher tops.RobertP09/04/2024

A long day stitching together a nondescript scattering of 6 tops all heather and peat bog with little to brighten the day except for a couple of streams that provided good walking. Even the wind turbines were a highlight! Carn na Saobhaidh; Beinn Acha Bhraghasd; Carn Ghriogaair North Top; Carn Ghriogair; Bein Bhread Mor; Aonach Odhar.dickscroop20/10/2017
