Circuit from North Glendale. The start of path shown on map not present on ground, so followed track track running E along coast then SE to climb Beinn Bheag. Joined path running SE then climbed Hairtebreac (all the high points), across to Roineabhal, along ridge to Cruachan and Marabhal, and finally the long pull to Easabhal (summit and 3 cairns of similar height) - lots of rock slabs on this hill. Descent back to North Glendale. Hot and sunny.RobertP14/06/2023

Parked south of gate beside road after second last house. Then up to last house to join a track to a gate & open hillside enroute to Marabhal, then onto Cruachan via the rocky Stump to the west of it. Then out to Hairtebreac a fine Tump with a fine Stump to the ESE via the corridor route. Down and along to Roineabhal [Roneval] in strong sunshine with Dangerous Dave. Back directly to car contouring around the 150 m level to the south of Cruachan,Dugswell204/06/2022
A bit of a long detour out here from Cruachan, on the way to Roineabhal. Lovely double-summit coastal hill. With Dugswell2.Dangerous Dave04/06/2022
