See atom na Gruabhaigh account. Fulll traverse. | Denise | 15/09/2023 |
Clockwise traverse of Beinn Aligin and the Horns. Sunny with little wind. Cloud above the summits all day | geoffh12 | 12/09/2023 |
Up to Tom na Gruagaich I was lucky as top 50 metres was above the cloud. Superb views across a sea of white to any high summits. Back into the clag on route to Sgurr Mir but again top was clear and I had both summits to myself. Headed down and over the Horns and back to the car. Amazing early morning walk. Time taken 5 hours 15 minutes including a lot of stops. Distance 7 miles for 3672 feet of ascent. | isabelle | 05/06/2023 |

Stats: 5hrs55, 11.2km, 1,297m ascent. Weather: hot & sunny. Notes: glorious scrambling along the horns of Na Rathanan ridge; excellent views from Munros. | millionmts | 07/09/2019 |
With: hb; From the car park, walked up Coire MhicNobaill, crossed the two bridges then scrambled up the south east ridge to the Horns (Na Rathanan). Supern scrambling over the horns in glorious sunshine, being followed by the beast od Alligin (a Collie which chose the stay with us rather than return to its owners who were half an hour behind us!). We descended to the bealach then walked up to Sgurr Mhor where we had lunch. We looked down impressive Eag Dhubh (Black cleft) on the path across to Tom nan Gruagaich. The descent path down Coire nan Laogh was tedious but gave good views back to start. This was a superb walk after so much rain. The paths have changed out of all recognition since my first visit in 1978. | Ian Baines | 29/05/2019 |

Traverse of Beinn Alligin with a friend. We parked at the car park where the road crosses Abhainn Coire Mhic Nobuil. We walked up the path on the east side of this burn and the path going near the Allt a' Bhealaich. At the path end we climbed to the top of the Na Rathanan (Horns of Alligin). We continued to the summit of Sgùrr Mòr, past the top of Eag Dhuibh (cleft) and then the summit of Tom na Gruagaich. Descended the SSE ridge back to the car park. | pwbellarby | 24/09/2000 |

Cairngorm Club Meet. Alone. From the car park next to the bridge over Abhainn Coire Mhic Nobuil. Went up SSW ridge to Tom na Gruagaich. I reached Sgurr Mhor of Beinn Alligin, went across the 3 Horns of Alligin, then to Stuc na Cabhaig and Beinn Dearg. There was heavy rain and mist initially, clearing on the Horns, then occasional mist, with good views. | pwbellarby | 22/09/1984 |
1st YHS New Year Torridon meet. W Brad, Chris M, Sally, Sarah . Overnight snow covered the grass and rocks. Occasional spindrift blasts in-between some sunshine.Horrific drops to N from top of this first horn.The descent was a dangerous and tricky grovel to join a narrow skirting path which we followed nervously through calf deep snow (axes out) missing out the 2nd horn on steep side slope until climbing up to the main summit and cairn where Chris M's apple rolled away off the edge to much hilarity. | Chris Pearson | 30/12/1983 |
