From a gravel parking area under the Pylon line on the B829. Up to the stone path above until reaching a deer fence W of Sgiath an Iubhair. Over the fence and paralleled it pretty much all the way to the summit. Continued along the fence line to a cross fence. Over gate then to the shafts, from where a path to Tom Ard. Back down the path which links the shafts all the way to the Loch Katrine road below. Along road to Stronachlachar then back to B829. Nice circuit, with bonus lochside cafe.summitter03/03/2023
