R LAST CORBETT! Steve great days and views | Richard Tait | 18/07/2023 |
Solo MTB from Druimavuic via Coire Budhe track. Very steep and loose in places for MTB (>30%) to col at NN 044 440. On foot from col over Creag na Cathaig, Pt 804 and on to summit. Decent same way, exhilarating on MTB! | John Lee | 03/05/2023 |
Solo. Good views despite scattered snow showers. Descended west ridge. | Nick Canute | 24/04/2023 |
Misty, atmospheric. No views today | TamCollie | 02/04/2023 |
From Beinn Bhreac. Straightforward plod in hill fog. | Owen B | 23/08/2022 |
From layby at Druimavuic, estate road E up Coire Buidhe to col. Contoured SE below Creag na Cathaig for protection from wind before steep ascent to Meall Garbh in cloud and across to the trig at Creach Bheinn. One window in the cloud gave us a brief but impressive view out to the W. Returned over Creag na Cathaig as wind had reduced. With Gillian. | richard69 | 26/05/2022 |
Up the track from Druimavuic to its high point then a hot and breezy climb over Creag na Cathaig, Meall Garbh and Creach Bheinn. The flank down Sron Fuarain looked tempting, so we took it to an impressive ridge-end cairn, continuing over to the craggy Creach Bheinn East Top, then contouring to the NW of Beinn Bheag to enable the easiest ascent. Back over to Coire Buidhe and down the track to the camper and ice cold drinks. 5.15hrs. | summitter | 24/04/2022 |
Dry mild day with views, but murk and wind both increasing from the north as a warm front moves south. | NorfolkPT21 | 29/03/2022 |
Beinn Bhreac (G), Creach Bheinn (C), Beinn Molurgainn (G), Beinn Mheadhonach (G), 21.8km, 9:32. Winter Hike | Huwel | 06/12/2021 |
With Sal on gloriously hot summer day after running Scottish 6 Days Orienteering. From Drumvaic, loop up the track and back down the north slope via gully to small lochan. Needed beer at Creaggan Inn afterwards... | davechaffey | 01/08/2021 |
Druimavuic > Meall Garbh > Beinn Sgulaird > Meall Garbh > Craig nan Cathaig > Creach Beinn > Meal nan Caorach > Druimavuic. | Winterfloodian | 30/05/2021 |
With: hb; Parked at Glengalmadale House. Followed the road 1km to start S ridge of Beinn na Cille where gorse ends. Descended N to bealach then an easy grass ascent of Fuar Bheinn. Took the ridge NW then N to complex bealach then another good easy ridge up Creach Bheinn. Stunning views from summit shelter. Trig destroyed by lightning. Descended into upper Glen Galmadale for wildcamp at 450m. | Ian Baines | 28/05/2021 |
Solo, loop up the track and back down the north slope. Low to no visibility above 600m and a cold wind at the top. | mproudfoot | 28/02/2021 |
From layby parking at 008451. To the bealach and over the 2 simms. Great views. Under 5 hours and under 10 miles solo. | bolton | 01/10/2020 |

Debs & Tali, late start, Rocky Tops of Beinn Sgulaird as per Pocket Mountains, Central Highlands. | Mountain Goat | 19/09/2019 |
Not recommended to approach from Sutherland's Grove / Gleann Dubh. The deer fence around Barcaldine Forest has been recently replaced and there are no obvious points to cross it. | dickiewren | 21/04/2019 |
With Colin from his van. | iansm | 15/08/2018 |
From Druimvuic on estate track then east over NE top and on to Meall Garbh main summit. Returned by similar route but taking in Creag na cathaig which I had missed in cloud on way out. Decent enough weather but tops all in cloud so no views which I think may have been quite good otherrwise. | dickscroop | 29/12/2017 |
2nd attempt. 1st was abandoned due to heavy rain. From Druimavuic along estate tracks then up NE ridge.Returned by a more northern gully straight to track. | Jhimmy | 17/09/2017 |
MMC Barcaldine round. Alex with Rob and Jeremy. Drizzling and low cloud. Thrash through bracken at start and finish. Rest was trackless wet moorland walking. 20K; 1700m; 9hours | alexmaclennan | 30/07/2017 |
Ascented from Druimavuic to the bealach on the new track then along the ridge to the summit, lovely day good views | Nozzer | 20/06/2017 |
On TGO Challenge | Colin Crawford | 12/05/2017 |
The standard route from Druimavuic. The bulldozed track is ugly but gets you up and down the hill quickly. The climb to pt 804 m was rather snowy, being on the lee side of storm Conor, and seemed surprisingly steep and rocky compared with the contours on the map. Somewhat awkward in bendy boots with no ice axe, or did I just choose a daft line? | Gill | 27/12/2016 |
From Sutherland's Grove car park | daviemore | 08/10/2016 |
From Druimavuic, track up above north bank of the Allt Buidhe, then across and up the steep but comfortable north ridge to Meall nan Caorach. Continued easily ESE then S to the summit. | Topographer57 | 01/10/2016 |

Trig revisit. Great view, wonderful Autumn afternoon, crisp and clear. From WNW, forest track, past 1st hairpin a path heads straight up then stops. Brief fight thru young spruce to tussocky ground which improves with height. Fine hill: followed ridge NE over various Corbett- and Graham Tops, Sgulaird, Stob Gaibhre then descended to Glen Ure and followed farm track back to start. | RHW | 17/10/2010 |

MC birthday outing with various inc JC and DC. Rain and mist. No view | Martin66 | 28/10/2006 |
Celebrating Martin66's birthday with a wet, drizzly ascent & viewless summit with lots of others. Using the standard route along the Allt Buidhe from Druimavuic, we went all the way to the top col & then over Creag na Cathaig & pt. 804 to the summit. As is often the case with my brother, impatience then took over & a direct line of descent over Meall Garbh (the clue is in the name) was attempted. The slopes under this top were either too steep or wet & slippery for all of the party to get down, so we ended up going over Meall nan Caorach to the NW & then, realising that the Allt Buidhe was far too full to get over further down, traversed back E underneath Meall Garbh until walkers of all abilities could get safely over the burn. It added interest, I suppose, not to mention an extra hour of unnecessary soaking. | NotReallyABagger | 28/10/2006 |
Cold, wet, windy. From Drumavuic as in the Corbett guide. Passing NE top en-route. | Aye Jimmy | 22/10/2000 |
