From the south end of Loch Fhionnaich and back the same way. A nice hill. | Alan Moore | 19/05/2018 |

Wet approach, steep in parts from Kinloch cottage. | Martin R | 22/05/2016 |
I suspect this peak, the lowest on the Ben Loyal range, is not much visited, but we did it anyway. It involved losing a lot of height from Sgor Cheirich, descending to Loch Fhionnaich before gaining almost 150m to the summit (suprised it's not a sub-Marilyn). Small in stature but big on views. | jonglew | 23/05/2012 |
