Parked in excellent spot N of track start. See 1:25k map. Followed track to end, the advocate track to fence. Then easily enough cross country to summit. Onwards to Little Hill. | Minto | 25/11/2021 |
Parked at NN780151. Track was, thankfully, frozen hard otherwise it would have been very wet. Followed track across bridge to NN772142 then headed up Ben Clach on very faint path, soon lost. Rough, hillocky ground to summit. Headed north on rough track to bealach then off-piste to Ben Clach North Top. Faint paths east to Little Hill (true top and trig) then straight down to radio mast and short track on to the road. 1 mile trek down the road back to start point. | TRG318 | 13/01/2021 |

Pretty good going on animal paths in the snow from Little Hill | alda | 01/01/2016 |
Heavy rain meant the burn to the east was 4' deep & too wide to jump, so abandoned soggy attempts to approach from the B827 and went round to north instead, parked at NN 74466 18036. Red flags all gone. Anti-clockwise Cnoc nan Oighreag, Ben Clach, N.Top. Strong wind. | agentmancuso | 04/08/2015 |
