P just NE of reservoirs. Pretty much straight up to E of summit. A little scrambling. Little white flags marked path SW and S to fence. Followed it eastwards. Climbed wooden fence and eventually down to reservoirs. Very windy at the top but dry. | chrisbien | 21/09/2021 |
From top Western corner of Banavie quarry, after hours (6pm). There's track off left in the quarry to the ariel /mast. | vegibagger | 20/09/2021 |
Parked on the verge at NN12362 78469, by the reservoir track, then up the short track(found there was better space to park up the track) and on up over rough grass with the help of some cattle tracks, to the summit. | LizH | 18/09/2021 |
Walked up from CP next to Moorings Hotel. With B and R. | jenx | 23/09/2019 |
A beautiful evening walk blue and sunny. Parked on side of A8004 north of Banavie/Bhanbhaidh - track to reservoirs then more less straight up with a bit of weaving. Lingered at summit trig to take in view as the sun dips. Ben Nevis clear and sunny views north (following the Caladonian Canal) and south captivating (so much detail to take in). Slowly descended. | briandavies | 29/04/2019 |
Evening walk with Steve, Graham and Alvin. Overcast, then snow, cold. Cloud started to clear on descent, we stood and watched the Ben appearing like magic through the cloud, then bathed in alpenglow. | Wycombe Wanderer | 02/04/2019 |
Quite an improvement in the weather from earlier on. Interesting to look down at Fort William from this side. | Alex C | 13/06/2017 |

Ok it was me who fell in the bog and very cold it was too! Great views up here but very snowy today which made it very hard going! | thejackrustles | 18/01/2015 |
Pleasant day up this wee hill: NB, met a large highland bull (luckily with cow..) on the way down, took diversionary loop through scrub | 2912pwil | 09/05/2014 |
Met Alan Dawson,the inventor of Marilyns,on summit. He was measuring the hill to see if it should be promoted to a Marilyn or not. Have to wait and see what the result is. Looks a very close thing | Martin R | 09/09/2013 |
Parked on a narrow road above Corpach at the entrance to a reservoir compound. Through a gate into the enclosure and over a fence to get out again! Very rough but dry plod uphill through 3' high new bracken, heather and deer grass over the trackless moor. To column 9727 at 14.25. Views all round. Best view of the Ben from any of the smaller surrounding hills. | arranc | 05/06/2011 |
Revisit. Damp tussocky climb from ESE (covered resr). Fine view down Loch Linnhe; The Ben in cloud today. Quick bag after a fine snowy circuit of the Western Mamores. | RHW | 25/11/2007 |
