Parked at NN 2201 2475 for a circuit of Beinn Bhoidheach, Beinn Bhreac and Meall nan Tighearn. (NB the Allt an Taillir was awkward to cross: wide and deep).PGCE23/03/2024

From A82 opposite Glen Falloch farm, up hydro track, on way to Meall nan Gabhar.MichaelF31/03/2022
Large track from besides the railway near Succoth Lodge, then over the deer fence and straight up to the summit ridge. Meall nan Gabhar old and new and Meall nan Tighearn bagged in straightforward order, reversing the route for home. Once back on the forestry-electric track we met a couple walking their cat on a lead, and they kindly gave us a ride on the back of their truck back to the car.summitter12/08/2021
With K&A from 220244. Best on Sundays/Bank hols when forestry and powerline operations not working. Found path to gate then on to Meall nan Tighearn, Meall nan Gabhar, MnG old top and cairned viewpoint. Steep descent to NE to return by new and existing tracks.lordtonult04/07/2021

Parked near the bridge before Succoth Lodge. Took the main track to the crossroads at 220246, then a grassy ramp East into the trees, where an overgrown track leads to a gate in the deer fence at 216239, although I was able to walk over the top of the fence on a snow drift. Thence to the NW viewpoint top on the ridge, followed by MnG old and new tops and MnT.Nick Down106/03/2021

Along with Meall nan Gabhar. Biked in from A82 on decent track. Stopped a couple of km from end of track when it was getting a bit rough so easier to walk and had plenty of time.dickscroop09/06/2015

Ascended after Meall nan Gabhar in good weather. Headed for Beinn Bhalgairean.JohnW22/06/2007
On verge near Glen Falloch Farm. On road to cross padlocked gate partially tarmacked rough access road steeply uphill. Over railway to junction and turned right. Under power lines twice and up to a flat 2m section passing 25 access ducts over every side stream trapping water into a pipe so that the glen was silent. Steep drop to cross the glen by the pipe and a further 1 1/2m on track ending at foot of wide tussock covered valley. One stream to cross and steep clamber on grass to top. No cairn. to Gabhararranc11/04/2007
