Usual route over the Beinn a' Ghlo Munros to Carn nan Gabhar from Loch Moraig. Back over the north ridge of BCCB then down to this fine, shapely outlier. Bypassed the first two Munros on their west sides on way back to car via the ruin of Creag-choinnich Lodge.Lindsay M31/08/2022
Nice little summit with a great view of Glen Tilt. From the col behind it an excellent deer track contours almost all the way back to the main path up Carn Liath, a really easy return route.IainT23/04/2019
A detour (on ok terrain) during a round of Ben Vrackie and Beinn a' Ghlo, from Moulin. A fine little summit with a great view SW down Glen Tilt.Rod M22/07/2018
