Beinn Eighe west to east starting from Cromasaig. Returned to the A896 via Coire Mhic Fhearchair & Coire Dubh Mor, before cycling back to Cromasaig.geoffh1215/09/2023
Very windy day with squalls and sunshine. Solo. From small car park west of bridge, followed the excellent Coire Dubh Mor path Nw around the north of Sail Mor and crossed the lake outflow (blowing backwards) at the outflow. Path sketchier round N and E side of Loch Coire Mhic Fhearchair. Then SE along line of lochans (east of Triple buttresses). Then east up loose steep quartzite gully. North side has quartzite ledges which are easier. North up wide ridge to Ruadh Stac Mor, return to col, then follow delightful ridge to trig and Spidean Coire nan Clach. Slightly scrambly but wide. Descend from trig, initially steep gravel zigs then steep mud and loose rock on east side of ridge. Final km nice improved path to road/ carpark north of Loch Bharranch. Hitched west 2 km back to car feeling weather beaten!Denise 14/09/2023

From parking near Loch Bharranch. Up the path into clag. Above 800 metres superb inversion. Up to trig point and the summit of Spidean Coire nan Clach then out and back to 2 eastern tops. Very rough hills. Then headed west to Coinneach Mhor both tops. Then headed down to Sail Mhor. Got over halfway down realised this was a rock climb didn’t want to be unable to reverse route and hadn’t read guides so headed back up and then on to Ruadh-stac Mor and down the scree gully to Coire Mhic Fhearchair. Beautiful place did think about going up Sail Mhor from here. Felt tired so just headed out and back to the car. Will come back to do Sail Mhor. Time taken 10 hours 25 minutes for 15.05 miles and 5456 feet of ascent.isabelle04/06/2023

1/2 - anticlockwise circuit of Beinn Eighe Munros - cloud down to 500m so no views, and warm and midgy. No real difficulties. Imagine the views are exceptional.....wychwood21/05/2023

Route over Beinn Eighe, starting with a camp in Coire Mhic Fhearchair. First climbed Sail Mor, decided against tackling the Ugly Step so descended part way from bealach and joined main path to reach the other bealach and on to Coineach Mhor (old and new summits). Continued east on the ridge to climb Spidean Coire nan Clach and descent by standard route. Near perfect conditions.RobertP18/04/2023
