From Calop car park (NM 9242 7921). Walked track heading NW for ~5.3km round to Guesachan cottage (MOWI fish farm), then steeply up to Meall a' Choire Chruinn then up to here. On to Sgorr Craobh a' Chaorainn, Meall na Cuartaige and return for an 18.5km round. | jonglew | 29/11/2023 |
Came up the ridge from Guesachan with jonglew. A very steep grass rampart gives easy access to the summit. Visited the false top before wandering over to the large summit cairn. Went on to Sgorr Craobh a Chaorainn by descending east on grass slopes northeast of the summit cairn. | Dangerous Dave | 29/11/2023 |

Anti-clockwise circuit of the three Corbetts. Stiff pull up the final section, I went steeply up grass between rocks for the last bit, to the right (north east) of the summit without difficulty. | Owen B | 06/10/2019 |

Cloudy but dry, Round of remaining two Corbetts east of Loch Shiel, from Callop. Interesting ridge and tricky descent, but went OK. | douglas_easton | 22/05/2019 |
From the NTS car-park, along the boardwalk and along the track running alongside Loch Shiel to Guesachan. Up the North ridge of Meall a Choire Chruinn (great views over the loch as you rise), then onto Sgurr Ghiubhsachain and along the ridge to Meall nan Creag Leac. Returned down the north flank back to the lochside track. Around 5 hrs in total. Superb walk. | summitter | 11/05/2019 |

Hadn't planned revisit but in afternoon sun the obvious way from Teanga back to Callop. Down to Leac, steep grass to traverse but OK | RHW | 06/05/2018 |
Quite an impressive corbett actually mountain. Some of these corbetts are better than the munros, very distinctive and in some wonderful scenery. Never walked this area before, superb. Great views. Company: Solo | iandesbottes | 20/07/2017 |
From Callop a good parking area just over the bridge. Weather changeable and so was my mind, Found north ridge difficult as I constantly lost path and eventually scrambled (grade 1) upwards. descent steep in a southerly direction. | Jhimmy | 08/06/2017 |
55th – Solo. Day 1 of overnight expedition, camped at head of Lochan Dubh (901 708). About 2km from Glenfinnan station follow track to Callop and beyond before heading up NE ridge of Sgorr Craobh a Chaorainn. Follow ridge round anticlockwise taking in two other Corbetts. Descend SE below Meall Mor to Lochan for overnight camp. Warm, clear, dry day. Excellent views. | RGibbs | 31/05/2017 |

From Callop (10:10) walked up glen, crossed stream by fallen tree and climbed NE ridge of Sgorr C a C. Cloud up and down but got useful views of route. Forecast bad but little rain. From summit (12:40) descended E to below crags, then back to ridge and on to Sgurr Ghiubhsachain. When ridge steepened, traversed R and climbed up corrie to summit ridge (less rocky). At summit 14:10. Descended NE ridge in cloud. Route-finding hard, with big drops. Finally escaped early to corrie and slogged back to Guesachan (16:25) for long walk back to Callop (17:45) | dbb | 25/07/2016 |

Second of three Corbetts from Callop with Chris | Peterb | 13/05/2015 |
From Stob a'Bhealach an Sgriodain via the horseshoe ridge. Very pleasant ascent offering great views down Loch Shiel. Fantastic peak. | bowlesy | 13/05/2015 |
From Sgorr Craobh a'Chaorainn col to join ridge 200m WSW of summit- could see least rough/steep lines here. Very atmospheric, wild top and very rough, trial and error way down N ridge. I think these 2 mts. would have been easier done the other way round. I know I should have used an Explorer map, not a Landranger. A fine, wild walk. | pwheeler | 23/05/2014 |
A good round climbed with Sgorr Craobh a Chaorainn with Shaky from Glenfinnan. Crossed the footbridge & along the soggy footpath to join the track which we followed along the side of Loch Shiel as far as the bridge just past Guesachan. Took to the N ridge of Meall a' Choire Chruinn, deep grass to start with but easier higher up, over the top & then on to the Corbett. Great view along Loch Shiel. Then an easy wander round to Sgorr Craobh a Chaorainn. Slanted down E to join the path to Callop & then skirted round to cross the Callop River back to Glenfinnan. A great day out. | NotReallyABagger | 05/08/2013 |
