Straight up from the South and return via the ruins of the churchphil7026/08/2023
Good parking NG372295. Atv/track along fence line WSW - not obvious at first - look for pallet over bog, and then to NG 3714 2947. Goes all way to NG 3617 2841, where crosses stream and heads S.carole engel31/05/2023
From the parking area above the forestry, took the ATV track, then the higher ATV track and up a fence line and past Loch a Bhac Ghlais then onto Preshal Beg - both Tumps. Then a fairly direct line to Beinn Bhreac summit, then trig. Off Beinn Bhreac avoiding the steep Crags to the rhs of the gorge, cut across below Beinn na Cuinneig then up onto the Tump of Beinn Chlachan Gorma. Off NE towards the fence across the fence and up to the ridge of Biod Mor and across to the summit. Back down the ridge to a gate picked up ATV track which follows above the fenceline to the start. 9.8 miles.JulieB26/05/2023
Part of a round to bag the new summit of Beinn Bhreac.BaggerGutt26/05/2023
From the large parking area above the ex-forestry, followed the ATV track to the shielings along the forestry fence. It continues down to an easy ford (large rocks) then up towards Clachan Gorma. I left the track at a rusty gate, then rising traverse SW above crags and below pt 376 to cross the fence next to Loch Bioda Mor, then up to the summit. Back similar way at first, then down to Clachan Gorma on easy grass. Over fence (no BW next to strainer), then found an ATV track going up pt 270, off piste over shoulder to find old path traversing to bealach, then strange grassy fault traversing Beinn na Cuinneig to stream gorge, up this to cross and climb Beinn Bhreac. Down small grassy valley on W side of summit bump to join ATV track going back to the outward route. Only 3 fences, all easy to cross.Gill06/10/2021
Parked near the dodgy first high bridge. The metal has many holes, could be worse in the future. managed to cross safely. Biod Mor fairly easy straight up. Up and over to go to the other one.tallblond18/09/2021
Parked on the Eynort road at the track down to the rusty bridge. Followed fence line straight up and across some boggy ground to cairn. Nice hill! Onto Beinn Clachan Gorma afterMatt290128/03/2021
From ample parking on the high point on Glen Eynort Road. There are two tracks one either side of river. I had hoped for southern track but water to high to cross at ATV ford. Continued to shielings dividing crossing into the three then up WNW slopes. 2/3 onto Beinn Bhreac. Mostly clear and sun with occasional showers.N.Morters12/10/2020
From Carbost, down to Talisker then across pathless moor. Picked up Glen Eynort road at bridge for return.quadbarrel17/07/2020
An easy climb from Clachan Gorma at 192 spotheight. Descended NW to the Old Shielings and then the track back to 372295. Solo.bolton03/10/2019
Had hoped for a circular route from SH156 but streams not crossable so parked at 381282 and crossed bridge then steeply to summit. Then on in murky conditions to Beinn Bhreac.NormanW18/09/2019
After Beinn Bhreac, via the Clachan Gorma (which was very wet). The grass slope directly above was one of the steepest I have ever encountered (sheep scrapes make useful resting places). Loch Bioda Mor is a lovely setting, but the fence to be crossed is double width - the rusty old BWF still remains alongside the new PWF - it's possible to cross easily where the fence abuts the lochan. In descent, cross the River Eynort ASAP (very greasy stones), as the S bank ATV track may be a long way before it meets the road. Superb view of the Cuillin range.Isbjorn19/01/2019
Direct route from Beinn Bhreac, then down the north ridge to ATV track above the tree debris back to car at road bend. Beware BWF infestation!Topographer5723/11/2018

round of beinn bhreac and biod mor ACW from point 156 visited all high points,robertphillips09/10/2016
Walked in w Jenx to Beinn Breac from NE along Eynort river. Nice hice start, good track to shielings then clipped grass along river to the small gorge shown on map. Good lines up alongside this then rough grass to summit. Chose from cairn, trig and grassy bump. Continued on to Biod Mor via col and steep climb. Easy then back to North and track along Eynort to start.nordicstar11/02/2016
Turned out to be a good route.the head of the valley with the shielings was a nice spot.jenx11/02/2016
from edge of forest at 372295, then through forest (felled) and straight up. Good viewsThearlaichdubh16/08/2015
Solo. From head of Glen Eynort. Went down a forestry track to Eynort River, but river in spate and crossing not possible. Went upstream - there is a track along side edge of forest - and crossed river with difficulty higher up. Climbed up to minor top to north of main top and then summit of Biod Mòr. There is a smallish cairn. Went to three other points that vied to be the highest point, although I don't think they are higher. Most likely contender a little to south of cairn. Descended to Eynort to avoid problems with river.pwbellarby28/09/2014
Parked on bend in minor road to the N. Down and across Eynort River (no bridge, short paddle required!) up to open hillside and on to summit. Bit rough at first but then OK.AndrewFinnimore31/05/2014

Park on W side of river on Eynort road. Cross a rusty bridge up over sheep pastures and many BWF's. To sloping ridge steeply uphill with 2 or more false tops to top at 10.25. to B Bhreac.arranc21/05/2008
