An anti-clockwise round of the three Beinn's from Glenrosa campsite. Very windy and a good level of snow on a rapidly improving afternoon. So windy that my lightweight walking pole blew down a gully near to Beinn a' Chliabhain. Thankfully, I also had my ice axe. | summitter | 10/02/2022 |
30k run. Beinn Tarsuinn, Caisteal Abhail, Cir Mhor, Goatfell. | quadbarrel | 08/09/2021 |
I got the 7am ferry out of Ardrossan and parked in Glen Rosa for a 08:15am start, up to Beinn Nuis first then Beinn Tarsuinn (826m, a Corbett). I had planned on getting the neighbouring Corbett of Cir Mhor, but instead returned via Beinn a’ Chliabhain 07:50 hrs all in. First day of OMC meet at Lochranza Campsite. 
I managed to time reaching the summit of Beinn Tarsuinn perfectly, just as a cloud came in to block the panorama. | chillyman8 | 02/07/2021 |
Walked to Glen Rosa from Brodick and then headed up Beinn Nuis and Beinn Tarsuinn. Quite hot and I was running out of water so decided to drop down via Beinn a'Chliabhain (didn't do the summit). The rock formations were amazing and it was a great walk but quite slow going. Excellent views in the afternoon. A great walk. | tsharp | 11/08/2020 |

Easy walk from Beinn Tarsuinn. Descent has had some good work done to the path, but considerable sections are still very rough, quite hard work after a long day. Descended to the confluence of Garbh Allt amd Glenrosa Water, forded the stream (low after a long dry spell) to the north side of Glenrosa, then an easy walk back along a good path to Brodick Castle. | Owen B | 14/05/2017 |
Last peak in the mist. Great day out even though no views from summits. Magical Glen with these corbetts. Company: Martin Stewart. | iandesbottes | 03/12/2016 |

On the way down from Beinn Tarsuinn. | Topographer57 | 31/05/2016 |
1st hill of 10 on an awesome day of epic scrambling grandeur. Starting in Brodick i took the cart road into Glen Rosa and then took the path up the Garb Allt burn, this eventually crosses the rocky gorge and heads up onto the ridge, with increasingly scrambly sections until i reached the summit. The atmosphere was eerie due to mist obscuring and clearing the view with strong sunlight evident in the valley. The Cairn is not the summit but a boulder. | Dazingdale | 13/05/2016 |

As part of West Glen Rosa circuit, continuing to Beinn Tarsuinn and Cir Mhor (but bypassing A'Chir) and coming back down via the Saddle and the Glen Rosa path, in fantastic weather. Very memorable. | milngavie_kenny | 22/05/2012 |
