From the road end near Eileanach Lodge following the route in the SMC Guide to Grahams. Stile near the crossing over the River Glass is no longer rickety. On this occasion the gate on the other side was open. No problems with fallen trees going through the forestry, much of which has been felled. To Graham Top Meall an Tuirc and on to Meall Mòr. Once over the peat hags at the col there is a path all the way to the summit. On the descent contoured round without much difficulty after the peat hags to avoid ascending the wind farm track. A beautiful sunny morning, clouding over in the afternoon.pwbellarby15/05/2022

Parked by Eileanach Lodge, up through forestry, on to Wind Farm track and followed it to the last turbine giving access to the final ascent. Returned avoiding the WF across tussocky grass and through the forestry.MichaelF26/07/2019
1 of 5: From the car park at Boath:572741. We initially parked at the start of the wind farm road:581738. The keeper drove down and advised us that parking there had caused difficulties for heavy lorries. He said there was a car park near his house at the road end so we drove there. It took 3 mins on the bikes back to 581738. We had a lot of pushing the bikes to gain height after the El. sub station then ok to 536732 about 300m before the last turbine where we left the bikes. Then through the peat hags and an ATV track for a while. With Sam.ChrisR24/05/2019
