On way back down from Beinn Narnain after having done The Cobbler. Was not sure if I had done this one on my two other visits to Beinn Narnain. I probably had.PeterD09/06/2023
En route to Beinn Narnain and Beinn Ìme. Walkhighlands route. Misty start but turned into a beautiful afternoon.Hot, sweaty walking.Lazylizzie05/06/2023
Parked at Succoth car park (£1/hour cash/card).Took path up SE ridge, very dry underfoot, to Cruach nam Miseag and Beinn Narnain. Whilst the cloud base was rising, it didn't rise fast enough for us to have any views from about 800m. It did clear as we were dropping to Bealach a Mhaim and we debated whether to climb back up... The path down is a constructed one further S than shown on the map, coming out near the Cobbler path junction. Good views and very hot from Beinn Ime but beginning to cloud again on the way up the Cobbler and North Peak. Descent via main path to the ESE back to the car park. With Gillian.richard6901/06/2023

Direct up Ben Narnain from Succouth then out and back to Ben ImeArbie23/03/2022
From the Succoth car park, directly up the old pipe path, which is more like a burn than a path for much of its course. Once out of the forest it improved to a well made stepped path before petering out as we neared Cruach nam Miseag. Under glorious sun, blue sky and snow conditions we carried on to Bheinn Narnain, then headed north east across the wide ridge tops of Creag Tharsuinn, A' Chrois West Top then main top. The way down the SW flank was aided by finding a 4WD track, which led us back to the top of the pipe track. 5 hrs total. Icy conditions in places. great walk.summitter28/11/2021

A very wet and misty day on which I climbed both Beinn Narnain and Ben Ime. I was temporarily misplaced on way down off Ben Ime. As a result I had a long very wet walk down the road to the car. I drove home misted up and very wet.langskill01/09/2001
Staying at Crianlarich Youth Hostel. With friends. From near Succoth. We walked up a path beside abandoned hydro-electric railway. Went on contouring path, crossed Allt a’ Bhalachain at the small dam and went up to SE ridge of Ben Arthur. We intended to climb over the SE top (moderate rock climb), but the rock was too damp. We went instead round the SW side of it. We scrambled on to the topmost point of Ben Arthur – carefully due to the somewhat damp conditions. We continued on in mist to Beinn Ime using compass. We took a more northeasterly route on descent, followed by ascent of Beinn Narnain. We followed a path down SE ridge. There were a few bits of unpleasantness on the descent – steep and boggy.pwbellarby22/11/1997
