From Tyndrum lower station, followed cattle creep path to just beyond wide, rocky streambed. Up good zigzag path to top of mines and followed grassy path over Sron nan Colan, Drochaid an Droma and up the rocky rib of Meall Odhar. Returned same way as it was so pleasant. Dry underfoot and very sunny. | Flatfield | 13/06/2023 |

Parked at Tyndrum Lower Station. Over the level crossing, through woods and up zigzags through old lead mine. Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 09/01/2023 |
Up the mine zigzags from Tyndrum lower station. Back the same way, as long wet grass in a fire break didn't sound preferable! | davidpettit84 | 14/10/2022 |

Tyndrum - Sron nan Colan - Drochaid an Droma - Meall Odhar - Beinn Chuirn - Beinn Chuirn S Top - Cononish - Tyndrum. | Mark Jackson | 28/07/2020 |
From station up miners' track- easier to find than the map suggests; easy to lose, too- we did that on a slope of spoil but quickly remedied the unpleasant diversion- the path is remarkably constantly graded. Short moorland slopes then a pleasant ridge led to the HP on the first leg of a very good walk to Meall Odhar. With Pete. Very fine weather. | pwheeler | 22/03/2020 |
Train to Tyndrum Lower. North-westwards along track beside railway, then up lead miners’ track, occasionally straying on to mining spoil (very loose stones and very unpleasant). Footpath from top of mining area to ridge, heather and rough grass to top. Dry and windy, sun just coming out of cloud, Ben Oss, Beinn Dubhchraig, Beinn Laoigh still capped. Crianlarich hills silhouetted like a Japanese painting. Down north-westwards along ridge, making for Drochaid an Droma. | mainnirnamfiadh | 25/07/2018 |
Tha's gold in dem da hills ... just follow the zigzag path! | summitter | 29/06/2018 |
parked at lower tyndrum train station cp, up zig zag path, return forestry track through trees, sron nan colan, drochaid an droma, meall odhar, beinn chuirn, beinn chuirn south top. | robertphillips | 24/06/2018 |
Took a similar route to Robert, but without the two Beinn Churn tops. The cairn on Sron currently sports a small Saltire. Drochaid an Droma's high point is either the northern or southern rocky top; the flat rock in between is lower. The descent from Meall Odhar to the Cononish track is seriously hard going over unremitting tussocks. | Nick Down1 | 24/06/2018 |

Solo. From Tydrum up the zig-zag path beside the old lead mines - an easy way to gain height. On to Sron nan Colan. Summit is cairn on rocky knoll. Easy walking to the summit of Drochaid an Droma. Highest point is rock - there is a minute cairn beside it. Continued to Meall Odhar. | pwbellarby | 16/09/2016 |

From Tyndrum BTW hostel. Followed route up to and through old lead mines. Watch the line/zig zags. In snow was tricky. Gained Sron nan Colan, then into biting wind/snow to Droma sub top then Graham Beinn Odhar. Deep snow, glad to reverse route with wind on backs. Tough day! | nordicstar | 28/12/2013 |
