Walked in along the Gruinard River but rather than go up by the Allt Loch Ghiubhsachain which I recall as being very rough we went over Creag-mheall Mor to the east top and then on Bearta. Excellent rocky tops - easy and interesting going. Back over Creag-mheall Mor and down to Creag-mheall Meadhonach and its North Top (bit more vegetated but still rocky). Then on to Creag-mheall Beag (having to dodge down through crags to get to the col) and its North Top (highest point seems to be atop a huge rocky outcrop which though steep you can walk up in the dry as the rock is so grippy). Off to the east to Bord - going still fine underfoot - and then the track and out. Fantastic views from all the hill - wonderful country. | StueyB | 24/10/2023 |
Circuit from bridge over River Gruinard. Crossed Allt Loch Ghuibhsachain and followed E bank, crossed after approx 1.5km then climbed to start of stalkers' path. Creag na Sgoine (alternative HuMP summit), Creag-mheall Mor, Creag-mheall Mor East Top (fine rocky top), Carn Lochan na Bearta (another fine top of bare rock), traverse to Frith-mheallan, then 	on to Beinn a' Chaisgein Beag. Descent E to cross stream and rejoin stalkers path for short distance. Climbed Creag-mheall Meadhonach (camped overnight just below summit), then Creag-mheall Meadhonach North Top, Creag-mheall Beag, 	Creag-mheall Beag North Top (unable to reach one of summit contentders in wet conditions), then Creag nam Bord to reach the track and return to start. Light rain for most of walk and clouds down low, even over lower tops, just clearing a little at the end of the route. | RobertP | 12/07/2019 |
