Solo from layby next to county boundary sign. Low clouds, frosty. tantalising views of blue sky above but not more distant views. Monument. | Nick Canute | 12/01/2024 |
On the way back to Tyndrum after climbing Beinn Fhionnlaidh. Parked in large layby at 314474, but this gave a rougher and longer route than necessary. The best parking would have been where the ATV track to the mast reaches the road at 310467, where there is room for a car or two. I took this route down and walked back along the road - 2.1 miles, 190m ascent, 1 hour. The hill itself is definitely high reward (in terms of both status and view) for low effort. | Mark Jackson | 22/07/2023 |

Just room to park at the end of the ATV track to the mast. Decent enough track despite rain, then path up the hill, continuing dry and easy even through horrid looking tussocks, then fading in and out higher up the hill. Easy going and nice views, a good short walk. | Gill | 20/11/2021 |
From ESE, revisit en route to Meall Beag | RHW | 16/09/2021 |
With Lesley and Mike. From small car park (space for 2 cars) close to local authority boundary, south-westwards over rough ground and long grass to just above communications mast. Clear footpath for first part of ascent of Meall Mòr, then less-marked paths in same direction over shorter grass to cairn, summit, and monument. Sunny and warm. Attractive views over Rannoch Moor and to higher hills in almost every direction. From monument roughly east-south-eastwards down north-eastern side of hill nearly to Lochan na h-Achlaise, then back to A82. | mainnirnamfiadh | 02/08/2021 |
From a car parking area scooped into a gorse-topped knoll 200 yards North of the county boundary. Pleasant walking over Meall Mor and Meall Beag, returning by the lochanside. Outstanding views. | Nick Down1 | 18/06/2021 |

Solo. From a car parking area near the SE end of Lochan na h-Achlaise. Walked up the broad east ridge of Meall Mòr to reach the summit. Went down the east ridge, crossed the main A82 road and went up to the summit ridge of Glas Bheinn reaching the ridge a little SW of the summit. Went along the summit ridge to the summit and descended more directly back to the car. The weather was warm and sunny. | pwbellarby | 11/05/2008 |

Good parking on A82 adjacent with Mobile phone mast located on hillside. Follow quad track to phone mast and then head up the hillside. Cairn on top marks obvious summit. Good views of Loch Ba. | andy | 23/09/2006 |
With Shaky from the high point on the A82. After Glas Bheinn, a quick jaunt to the summit on a dreich day, although there was a view of sorts. Shaky was keen to extend the walk so we wandered over to Meall Beag & back in the hope that the weather might improve. It didn't. It rained harder. | NotReallyABagger | 17/09/2006 |
