From car park just E of Glen Cottage. Ascent via marked footpath. Steep pull up, but mostly well made. Some short scrambling problems but non-technical. The down-scramble from Stob a Choire Laith Mhor is straightforward. The final E ridge to summit more tricky - it's bouldery and quite a lot of soft snow made foot placements uncertain, same on descent. Foggy and I/M showers. Min wind. Warm for Feb | wychwood | 18/02/2024 |
Full east to west traverse with Munro tops, though excluding Northern Pinnacles. Small carpark to west of mapped ascent path. 
 
Ascent path obvious, steep and mainly stone surfaced. Once at ridge made short out and back to Eastern Top. Then continued west over delightful ridge with easy scrambling, latterly blocky but many variants over Top to Liathach, Munro with cairn on slabs. Clear grey day with light breeze. 
 
Pinnacles approached with caution but no more that YDS2, easy scrambling. There are many variants and bypass paths that you can join and rejoin. There are some harder sections but easy to avoid; route finding is not hard( follow the crampon scratches and smooth holds) but needs thought . The first half is the hardest and the scrambling section is overall short. 
 
Thereafter, it’s an obvious grassy path on a superb ridge with great views to second Munro. Good descent track- improved- to road, then 2 km walk back to cat | Denise | 13/09/2023 |
Stuc a choire dhuibh bhig then over Stob a choire liath mhor to Spidean a choire leith. Over the pinnacles scrambling was fine apart from a couple of sections where I took the wrong line! Am Fasarinen then on to Mullach an Rathain. Took it easy and enjoyed being up high in glorious weather. | isabelle | 03/06/2023 |
Very very hot and a beautiful blue sky day with a gentle breeze. Took just short of 10 hours. Only regret was that I didn’t set off earlier to miss the heat of the day. Did this east to west and climbed over the An Fasarinen pinnacles grade 2 scramble. | Shinydiscoba11z | 03/06/2023 |

Full traverse including along the crest of the An Fasarinen pinnacles and coming of east after Mullach an Rathain but not Meall Dearg to the north, which I'd done previously in 2012. | vegibagger | 13/10/2015 |

Whole ridge with most tops | JamesSDonald | 03/10/2014 |
Third day of five-day trip with DW & SL. Classic Liathach traverse. The scrambling was easier than I expected - principally because it is is essentially ALL avoidable if you want it to be. We had an awesome day - clear weather, no wind across ridge/summits, but it was hazy. | AGWilliamson | 21/09/2014 |
Traverse of Liathach on a bright clear with view in all directions. | rhalstead | 26/06/2014 |
1st of 2, with Tom. Left car at end of walk and hoofed it along the road before starting ascent. Dodgy pastry from Inverness Tesco was due to haunt Tom most of the day :D A sock sacrifice was to be made later :D | bowzi | 07/06/2014 |
