Followed Summitter's advice and asked permission to park at the outdoor centre. Fast easy progress on the road to and over both dams and on to the pipeline. Then very slow up through snow. Any ATV tracks hidden. Snow covered outcrop. With Karen. | ChrisR | 15/03/2023 |
Cycled along the Orrin road from the Fairburn Outdoor Centre, where the good folks allowed me to park my camper. The ride across the Orrin dam was fun and Creag a' Bhainne was easily bagged from just a little further along the road/track. I parked up again a km on, enabling a round of the Corriehallie hills. ATV ruts run besides a stalkers path into these remote tops, making it straightforward to get to Creag a' Bhainne and Creag na h-lolaire West top. Then its a heathery climb up to Creag na h-lolaire proper and on to Druim Ballach before descending back the stalkers path and once more into the saddle. | summitter | 16/09/2021 |
