| Tramp up through the heather from road to West. Fantastic full rainbow from the late afternoon/ sun singing through one of the myriad of short squalls today.... Marilyn 998 | vegibagger | 27/09/2022 |
| As others parked at junction opposite mast (big viewpoint parking area). Through gate, followed bits of various ATV tracks up to ridge then along to summit, back in a pretty much direct line. 30 mins to top, 55 mins round trip. 1.7 miles.

| Quick jog from the viewpoint. | amswanston | 31/08/2018 |
| A nice evening stroll from the viewpoint car park on the minor road into Tongue village, by the radar mast. Patches of burnt off heather make the hill look scruffy, but it’s a quick and easy walk with good views of Ben Loyal and Beinn Stumanadh. | Gill | 08/05/2018 |
| From viewpoint just south end of Tongue. Up easy slopes in 35mins. Great views even Orkney. 3/3 | N.Morters | 06/05/2018 |

| A quick and easy ascent from the small parking area at the road junction. | jenx | 15/06/2016 |
| A quick up and down from the road junction above Tongue. Just followed heather burnings for easiest route. Great views from summit plus very audible explosions from the military bombing range over on Cape Wrath - the NATO exercise must have been in airborne phase today. Good old red sandstone conglomerate rocks on summit and slopes | SpudGunn | 14/04/2016 |
| Solo trip. Farthest west outcrop of Old Red Sandstone along the north coast. | Invicta14 | 07/04/2016 |
| On the way back from Stroma to Lairg. From the SW, small parking area on minor road just off the A836. No paths but terrain and vegetation fairly comfortable by local standards. | Topographer57 | 22/08/2015 |
| Easy up and down from road junction where there is decent parking | AndrewFinnimore | 21/09/2014 |
| A bog trot. | Martin R | 26/05/2014 |
| A 6 mile round trip saw us take in 3 hills to the east of the Kyle of Tongue that run north-south, this Marilyn being the southerly of those hills. No paths, but a lovely boggy morass to negotiate - what fun! At least we had hot sunny weather which gave great near distant views - bit hazy in the distance. Parking was part way up the access track to the Ben Tongue comms mast. | jonglew | 24/05/2012 |

| Late afternoon ascent after climbing Beinn Stumanadh. | JohnW | 09/06/2011 |
| Car park on A 838. North on road turning into a tarred road uphill towards masts. After passing farm became a rough track, through 2 gates. Visibility 100m. Left track at its high point to cross moor on a gentle slope on compass. From small hump downhill for final climb on rough heather to top, passing ruins of a rusty mast. Neat cairn of smooth stones. 10.50. No view - mist. | arranc | 28/07/2008 |
