Summited as out and back from the bealach. | jdcmongoose | 02/08/2023 |
Stuc a choire dhuibh bhig then over Stob a choire liath mhor to Spidean a choire leith. Over the pinnacles scrambling was fine apart from a couple of sections where I took the wrong line! Am Fasarinen then on to Mullach an Rathain. Took it easy and enjoyed being up high in glorious weather. | isabelle | 03/06/2023 |

Traverse of Liathach Ridge. Sole of boot came off about half way along, which added a bit more difficulty!. Temperature inversion meant views were stunning. | jigglybones | 25/08/2021 |

Full traverse of Liathach from east to west. | welshyboyo | 24/05/2016 |
East west traverse with Barbara Jones and her mountain guide Jim Sutherland on utterly glorious conditions. Full traverse including along the crest of the An Fasarinen pinnacles and coming of east after Mullach an Rathain but not Meall Dearg to the north, which I'd done previously in 2012. | vegibagger | 13/10/2015 |
Whole ridge with most tops | JamesSDonald | 03/10/2014 |
Third day of five-day trip with DW & SL. Classic Liathach traverse. The scrambling was easier than I expected - principally because it is is essentially ALL avoidable if you want it to be. We had an awesome day - clear weather, no wind across ridge/summits, but it was hazy. | AGWilliamson | 21/09/2014 |

Traverse of hill w MVW/DR/BES/MT/NB - from Lochan an Iasgair car park, along full length of tops/pinnacles to descend via Tuill Bhairi gill to road | nordicstar | 10/04/2001 |
Chris and me met Rick, Mike W and Burt et al at Torridon Youth Hostel. Foot and mouth in full swing but allowed onto Liatach and Ben Eighe. Ascended at back of Spidean a'Choire Leith climbing on icy rocks. Lots of snow on top but soft. Walked the ridge as far as the gully at Mullach an Rathain (Liathach) - Am Fasarinen 
where with just a rope and no crampons or ice axe we deemed it too risky. Burt me and Chris retrieted and others went on. Had to abseil down ridge Liathach - Spidean a'Choire Leith as snow had now frozen solid. Descended Toll Maitheach path. | Mark T | 10/04/2001 |
Galltywenallt | 29/05/2000 | |
On a clear but windy day with Shaky via the usual E to W route. Skipped the pinnacles given how windy it was but the traversing route underneath was a bit exposed in places anyway. Knee breaking descent on loose, eroded slippery stuff. Great hill of course but increasingly a victim of its situation & popularity. | NotReallyABagger | 29/04/2000 |

Alone with a cloud inversion. Followed same route as last time and sat on first summit in sunshine a few feet above the clouds. Along with a couple I met there, went on along the ridge in cloud and over the pinnacles, on to summit and down to the glen. | SS | 08/07/1989 |

Hot & sunny. Up E ridge (recommended the previous weekend by Colin Dodgson). | jimbloomer | 27/06/1986 |
Start of a traverse of all the summits on the main ridge of Liathach, climbing on a clear path from just E of Glen Cottage. This looked like it would be really tough, but a well graded and- at times intriguing path across very steep slopes- made its way to just W of this first top. Well worth a visit as the drops are precipitous just a little way E, and the view of Beinn Eighe across the void is immense. Also visited with my brother, Pete, in 1992. | pwheeler | 16/05/1986 |
