Just a gentle easy scramble walk to summit. Cracking views, especially of the cobbler. Company: Soloiandesbottes01/09/2023
A great day out, visibility was coming and going higher up, ascended the eastern front face of The Cobbler and descented off the back NW'ly side. Light rain, 12°C, Feels like 11°C, Wind 4mph from WNW, visibility often >6mihiglett27/08/2023
After doing main summit, dry conditions so slabs were fine, descended by other easier path to bottom of slab. Back over Beinn Narnain.PeterD09/06/2023
Parked at Succoth car park (£1/hour cash/card).Took path up SE ridge, very dry underfoot, to Cruach nam Miseag and Beinn Narnain. Whilst the cloud base was rising, it didn't rise fast enough for us to have any views from about 800m. It did clear as we were dropping to Bealach a Mhaim and we debated whether to climb back up... The path down is a constructed one further S than shown on the map, coming out near the Cobbler path junction. Good views and very hot from Beinn Ime but beginning to cloud again on the way up the Cobbler and North Peak. Descent via main path to the ESE back to the car park. With Gillian.richard6901/06/2023
SHC Walk from Arrochar. Straight up to Cruach nam Miseag then Beinn Narnain, The Cobbler and North Peak, descending steeply East to track and back to the car.TRG31828/05/2023
see log for the Cobbler. Slabs trickier than expected - obviously not mentioned after the true summit which is a climb. Amazed at how many have claimed a bag (the Cobbler) on here without summitting - naughtycarole engel04/09/2022

Bright warm sunny day, climbed from Succoth, taking path up between central and N peak,then along to summit. Threaded the needle and fortunately the rock was dry for the exposed scramble to the top of the summit pinnacle. Returned to the col then an easy ascent of the N peak. Descended using path running N to reach col with Ben Narnain and follow path SE back to start. Great walk.RobertP29/08/2016
