A walk from Killin where we had a Freckles weekend. Walked past the dam for about a 1km, and then followed the mist to the summit. Lots of tarmac but we managed a pint at the end so were not too tired of tar. | ragudave | 05/05/2023 |

Surprised to find that this is a splendid walk, despite the tarmac bashing. Parked at the gate below the mast; the road is steep, winter tyres recommended if at all icy. Fallen trees have been cleared. The walk along the hydro road is lovely, great views, which you can appreciate with the easy walking. I went up the hill from the hairpin to the SE, easy going on grassy sheep tracks. Splendid views of dozens of your favourite hills from the top. | Gill | 01/03/2022 |
With Brian and Janice, from the CP in Glen Ogle. Lots of snow along the track in 7 hours. | Play2End | 25/02/2022 |
With PJ, AJ. Parked close to where the Rob Roy Way meets the south Loch Tay road. East up the good track past the reservoir, leaving the track SSW of the summit. Retraced steps. Windy but dry and bright, soft snow higher up. | Owen B | 21/02/2022 |
