From Strathcarron forth hill one more to go | Andrew Simmons | 23/03/2024 |
With Rhona & Struie. Park without annoying anyone in Achintee and proceed up to the electricity sub station. Go thru a gate and after 50 yds turn left on a path. You can follow this path, as per OS, south of the River Taodail. Climb steadily and pick your turning off point to ascend the N ridge of Creag Dhubh Mhor. Follow the ridge along. Summit marked by small cairn. We then decended S by some small lochans and went up to the trig of Carn Geuradain. Many possible routes down fromhere, but we chose the Allt Garadh Allein valley SW. Poss not the best. Eventually a good path is reached, which travels broadly NW to take you all the way back to the start. | DampandDusty | 23/09/2023 |
Solo. Came over from CDM W.Top. | Dangerous Dave | 29/05/2023 |

Circuit from Achintee. Initially followed Bearnais path to high point, then visited Cnoc Uadhall North Top, Cnoc Uadhall, Creag Dhubh Mhor NE Top, Creag Dhubh Mhor, Carn Geuradainn, Carn Geuradainn SE Top. Returned roughly W, contouring ridge to reach path back to start, visiting Creag Dhubh Beag on the way. Tops in cloud and steady rain / drizzle for much of the way. | RobertP | 05/05/2022 |
Creag Dhubh Mhor and all its subsidiary humps, bumps and lumps, making use of the stalkers paths from Achintee. Left the village on the southern path and returned via the northern. Creag Dhubh Beag and Aonach Dubh East Top done for completeness. Not a sole to be heard or seen all afternoon. | summitter | 21/03/2022 |
Achintee - Bearnais path - Creag Dhubh Mhor - Carn Geuradainn - Bendronaig Lodge path - Achintee. Damp. | davidpettit84 | 19/10/2021 |
From Achintee, round of Creag Dhubh Bheag, Creag Dhubh Mhor, Carn Geuradainn pair and Aonach Mor east Top. Lovely stone built trig here | Colin Crawford | 17/06/2021 |
From Strathcarron. Up on Bealach Alltan Ruairidh path, then turned off and followed Allt Garadh Ailein until just below summit. Then on to Creag Dhubh Mhor. | quadbarrel | 26/04/2021 |
With Luna. Circuit of 10 tumps from Acintee. Stalkers paths both very good, the northern one to Bearneas has been bulldozed for the first couple of miles for a hydro scheme, accessible from the main road near the station. | BigNick | 25/09/2020 |
Walked in from Achintee on a good track to NG 9845 3876. From Carn Geuradainn SE Top and on to the E Top. | jonglew | 12/09/2018 |
After Creag Dhubh Mhor. | NormanW | 19/04/2017 |
Afternoon walk to this Graham with DW, SL and PM. Wet, cloudy, windy and a rather dull hill! | AGWilliamson | 31/12/2016 |
Long direct climb up from west following stream through small corrie. 3rd of 21 summits on a 14 hour overnight bagging adventure on the shortest night. Left Attadale at 6.45pm then 15 kms of lonely rough grass and bog over 11 assorted tops to reach Bendroniag Bothy at 11.15pm in rain and last of daylight for a 4 hour rest / 'sleep' on wooden floor in thin sleeping bag. Left at 3.30am at first light for 10 more tops and 18km back to Attadale for 9.00 am. Rained on and off for 80% of the time which had not been part of the plan. | Chris Pearson | 21/06/2016 |
W Jenx from Achintee. Blustery cold day, snow showers. Biting wind. Used stalkers path to gain high ground to NE of summit and over the main top. Collected an assortment of other summits. Stayed dry yet cold wind persisted till return to car. | nordicstar | 02/01/2015 |
Some years earlier during an epic Corbett bagging trip involving London sleeper trains, hangovers, full pack peak bagging & a very midgey Maol-bhuidhe bothy, I'd looked at Creag Dubh Mhor on the way out, but the thought of beer in the Strathcarron Hotel won out... Now from the house in Strathcarron, took the more N of the two stalkers paths from Achintee (now a bulldozed hydro scheme track unfortunately). Followed this to due N of summit & then wound way up round crags to summit. Deer everywhere. Nearly trod on a very young calf. A superlative view E into the Monar hills & beyond. Over very rough ground to Carn Geuradainn & then descended SW to join the more southerly stalkers path back to Achintee. These days, probably best done from the S due to the hydro impact, sadly. | NotReallyABagger | 25/06/2014 |
