Revisit. #2 of 5 from Old Blair car park, Munro revisited then circuit of tops en route to HHB Braigh Clais DaimhRHW09/04/2023
Backpacking over hills between Tarf and Tilt. Walked up Glen Tilt from Blair Atholl, then track and finally rough ground to Dun Beag. Continued directly to Dun Mor, then across to An Sligearnach and Braigh Coire na Conlaich. Continued to Meall Tionail, Conlach Mhor and Creag a' Chrochaidh. Then a steady climb to Carn a' Chlamain. Then the final section of tops, over Carn a' Chlamain North Top, Braigh Sron Ghorm, Aonach na Cloiche Moire, Braigh nan Creagan Breac. Descent S to Gaw's bridge. Some sunshine on walk min and walk out, on the tops mainly overcast with strong cold wind, didn't feel like AugustRobertP06/08/2022

Carn a'Chlamain from Old Bridge of Tilt.thekirkie pirate11/06/2021
Big day out! Parked at Glen Tilt car park and enjoyed a lovely walk up by the river. Headed up towards Carn a'Chlarmain with a little detour to Creag Loisgte, on to the Munro and its north top, keeping going onto Aonach na Cloiche Moire, Braigh nan Creagan Breac and Braigh Clais Daimh before continuing down to the floor of the glen and home. I'd imagine that navigation would be tricky with three non descript tops, but with clear skies, the views were incredible. 6hrs 40 31kmNicky C01/03/2021

From Old Bridge of Tilt. Followed yellow trail markers along a riverside loop and through the rifle range to Gilbert Bridge. Along the Tilt to Gaws Bridge and up the SW ridge of Carn a'Chlamhain at Balaneasie. Once out of the shelter of Glen Tilt, a fierce SW wind blew away any notions of a tour of adjacent tops, and I settled for the summit and North Top only. Glen Tilt is delightful: on this occasion, I saw a heron in flight twice, dippers - each on its rock, and oystercatchers, a curious sight so far inland.Nick Down101/07/2017

Solo. Parked at the start of the track up Glen Tilt near the Old Bridge of Tilt. To Clachghlas and over Bràigh Clais Daimh and Bràigh nan Creagan Breac to Aonach na Cloiche Mòire. It now became misty as I headed for Càrn a' Chlamain. It was also very cold so I put on a second fleece under my anorak. The mist cleared for a bit but then descended again. I reached the North top of Càrn a' Chlamain and the main summit. It was now snowing quite a bit so the ground was now snow covered, but not to much depth. I headed off SE on a compass bearing and then went down the long ridge running SW above Clachghlas and to Clachghlas. I was out of the mist and the snow ceased. Walked down Glen Tilt along my outward route.pwbellarby08/05/2005
