Parked at the end of the track to Glen Strae. Along to the track up the Allt Dhoirrean, which exists as marked on the map, but a very cow trodden, boggy start, made the initial section difficult to follow. Up to the lovely little lochan at the col, then contoured N of Beinn Lurachan to the next col. Dropped down below Beinn Larachan and across the coire to Meall Buidhe. Great views, high hills all around, and no turbines, masts or pylons in sight!LizH07/04/2023

Route from Glen Strae. Limited evidence for the path on the map up to Lairig Dhoireann. Branded off near top to climb the 2 tops of Beinn Lurachan. Continued NE to climb Beinn Larachan, then climbed S ridge of Meall Buidhe with good views to Starav range. Descended S, then climb NW to Meall Garbh, visiting summit and various nearby rocks of similar height. Return to beallach and steady climb to Meall Beithe.
