| Walked in from A832 along Loch Bhraoin. Good track for walking; wouldn't advise it for a bike - lots of new deep gravel makes it slow as walking. Together with Groban. | IanHHill | 14/07/2019 |
| From A832. Beinn Bheag, Groban, Ceann Garbh Meallan Chuaich (also visiting the trig point), camping on descent. Excellent views into Fisherfield, hot but mostly with cloud cover, and lots of horse flies on return. | RobertP | 06/07/2018 |

| From Groban, then cycled back from Lochivraon. Too hot and dry to continue over Rainicn. | Topographer57 | 17/08/2016 |
| Parked up on main road and cycled down track to Loch Vroan, along the rough road (walking may have been quicker) to the bothy behind locked lodge. The track extends another half km before becoming wet. Cut up the burn to the Bealach Gorm and climbed Ben Beag and Groban from there, back more direct to the lodge and out. | nordicstar | 01/08/2016 |
| The cycling didn't really work for me. Too much gravel washed up from the loch. But after I abandoned the bike it was all ok and some great views into the Fisherfields. | jenx | 01/08/2016 |
| From lochivroan - followed path then made a bee-line for slope just past col. Care needed with burn crossings | Buteobuteo | 31/08/2015 |
| Bike along loch, terrible track. Drizzled all day, then rained harder. No views from top. | iangalbraith | 24/06/2015 |
