Cruinn a'Bheinn & Creag a'Bhocan from Inversnaid. 3 of 3thekirkie pirate30/01/2024
Kayaked from Tarbet then up Cruinn a' Bheine, Stob Bealach Gaoithe and Creag a' Bhocain. Bracken, tussocks, bogs, heather - you name it. Good thing the bracken was deid and the bogs frozen.sclater08/03/2023
Along the WHW from Inversnaid Hotel to Cailness Cottage. Up the track from there amongst a chorus of willow warblers until it eventually levelled out. We took a bee-line across the, thankfully dry, bog to Cruinn a' Bheinn. It was so warm and dry that we next headed SEE to Creag a' Bochain and its south top, giving fantastic views over Loch Lomond across to The Cobbler and the Arrochar Alps. Due north back to the track and WHW. 4.45 hrs total.summitter23/04/2021
