Verge parked NN 7422 2732 just before bridge. Locked gate at Invergeldie. Road/track to NN 7292 3009 where ATV continues up to 700m contour line and then traverses hills at this height. Left ATV at NN 7144 3122 on easy ground to top.carole engel19/06/2023
Climbed with Tim and Richard on a very hot bank holiday monday. Late start as planned to do Beinn Each but couldn't find any parking spaces because so busy!!amcculloch29/05/2023
From Invergeldie picking off Creag nan Eun on route. Frozen turf nice views bitter wind.N.Morters11/03/2023
Solo from invergeldie car park. Car park itself was an ice-rink, as was the track all the way up to the dam, so used the spikes. Above 600m, I was up to my knees in powdery snow, so cut a direct line to the corbett summit, and then dropped down to about 500m, keeping above the shoreline for the walk back to the dam. Was hoping for a 4hr walk - ended up an exhausting 5h 20min.mproudfoot31/12/2022

A round of the Creag Uchdag tops from Glen Lednock, following the R bank of the Allt Mor along a track, through a metal gate and on via faint ATC tracks over the western flank of Creag na h-Iolaire to Meall Aiteachain. From here, a fenced ridge leads to Creag nan Eun (Scotland's smallest windshelter?), Meall Dubh Mor and Creah Uchdag. On descent, I cut down from the first heathery platform on the reascent to Creag nan Eun to the Allt Mor.Nick Down114/08/2021

From Shee of Ardtalnaig. Descended the heathery ridge south, over the track, crossed the stream at about 500m asl, then surprisingly easy going, joining the good track 530m asl, up the track to 610m asl, then over the stream and a straightforward grassy plod to the summit.Owen B17/07/2021
Easy ascent, great views. Poor choice descent down to loch over awful terrain.Play2End10/07/2021

With Andy and Iain. Drove over from Aberdeen. Pathless walk to the top but fine views on way down over Loch Tay.slynch23/07/2020
Along the footpath parallel to the Finglen Burn from Andeonaig. Sheep density thinned out as we climbed higher, before we headed off-path up to the low top of Tom a' Mhoraire then Creag Uchdag, which is a fine summit. Took the high-route back over the hags and tussocky grass to Meall nan Oighreag then along the fence line to Tullich Hill. An easy westerly descent back to the south Tay road reunited us with the sheep and provided a superb vista along this gorgeous glen to complete a four hour round.summitter06/06/2020

From Ardtalnaig, followed old track through wood to SE, leaving it at wood edge and heading up ridge to Tullich Hill, continuing on to Meall nan Oighreag and Creag Uchdag, dropping down to Allt a'Chartan and following the track on the N side E to a point about 1km SW of Dunan, contouring round to a point WSW of summit of Shee of Ardtalnaig, then up steep W slopes to summit, descending along ridge to peat hags, then more steeply down to the track back to Ardtalnaigkdbennett15/09/2019
