Parked at Balvraid Farm at end of public road. Walked along track up the glen. I had seen reports that the footbridge across the Ghlinne Bhig river was closed so looked for place to cross further down stream. River level was low due to recent very dry spell so no problems there. Crossed where the electricity pylon lines cross and followed the line of these onto the shoulder of the main ridge. There was a wobbly old deer fence to cross just above the river bank but on way back found an open gate in the fence beside a single tree on the hill side of the fence. Easy ascent along ridge which has a path for the most part all the way to the summit. Returned by same route. | Jossker | 09/06/2023 |
From Beinn Sgritheall NW Top. More cloud in the sky than of late, keeping me cool and casting scenery enhancing shadows on the hills. Rocky knolls and lochans. On to West Top. | Wycombe Wanderer | 05/06/2023 |
Cycled from Moyle campsite to 'Danger Bridge'; up and down ridge; back via new brewery beside broch and Glenelg. Bridge is still intact and easily crossable. 
There is now a good track all the way through from near Suardalan though it has a locked gate. | daviemore | 30/05/2023 |
Parked at Balvraid farm where there is a very welcoming sign saying You Can Park Here. Over the unsafe bridge then a pleasant ridge walk to the summit. With Jill, Phil & Chris. | Dangerous Dave | 21/05/2023 |
With PM & DD(DC). | CJM | 21/05/2023 |
Parked at Balvraid farm where there is a sign saying parking is allowed. Went over the dodgy bridge at 866158. A misty climb up one of the highest Grahams. Just over 8 miles return with Dangerous Dave, Gill R and CM. | bolton | 21/05/2023 |

Signed parking spot beside Balvraid farmhouse. Up via E side Srath a' Chomair & along S side next wood then up to ridge. Descended W from 742m pt. Lot of wood has been cut down so took short cut from approx 826169 down to track junction. | duchally | 29/07/2022 |

The route up as in SMC Grahams guide, but back the same way. The footbridge was hard to find, and when I found it, there was a notice saying Danger do not cross. It was lopsided, but passable with care. | IanHHill | 12/09/2021 |
As per SMC route. Parked at Balvraid (asked permission - granted). On hillside, possible stalkers or deer path virtually all way up east ridge. Despite lowish dry grass, ticks galore. | willyross | 01/09/2021 |

From the end of the road in Gleann Beag, with Hannah, Vicky & Jon. Bridge mentioned in SMC book was out, but able to cross river lower down as water level low. | Grinner | 31/08/2021 |

A fabulous walk from Balvraid, along the track and the wobbly bridge. Easy going the whole way mainly on deer tracks. Such a beautiful, elegant ridge walk I just had to come back the same way. Stunning views despite the rain. | Gill | 21/05/2019 |
From Balvraid, usual route, 2km or so SW following the river on a good 'road', over the dodgy footbridge and up the ridge. Went on to the W Top, then steep descent on near enough direct line back to the car, a significant reduction in distance, but not for the faint-hearted. | jonglew | 08/05/2019 |

From Balvraid, blether with farmer then along track to bridge and up ridge. Many false summits. Used deer track most of the way until last climb. Mist and drizzle for last 100m;no views. Descent same route and top clear by time was back at car! | MichaelF | 12/07/2018 |
From Balvraid, walking E along track to reach bridge then E ridge of Beinn a' Chapuill to summit. Visited other high knolls, then W top. Descended W close to path of stream, then N to descent by end of forest and ford the river (very dry) to reach the road and return to car. Hot sunny day, lots of horse flies. | RobertP | 03/07/2018 |

From Balvraid. Parking quite limited as I started late. Bridge at NG 86634 15805. Rough climb. You think you’re there but you’re not. False summits abound but the view is well worth it. | Campbell Singer | 27/04/2018 |
