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 |
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 |

A night hike up Beinn a' Chliabhain to the summit then down the other side for a summit camp. Sunrise was brilliant, what a place to awake to and the ridge outlines along with the Moon at night were amazing. Returned to the car at Glen Rosa in the morning after little sleep. | Chris Mac | 14/07/2019 |

3rd hill of 10 on epic day of walking and scrambling from Brodick to Corrie. I took the Glen Rosa track and then the footpath upto Benn Nuiss continuing onto Beinn Tarsuinn and then at the Consolation Tor i found a narrow path under the huge buttress rhat links the ridge to Beinn Chliabain where i climbed up to climb all potential rocky summits. Re-traced steps and then had my packed lunch under a boulder at the start of the A' Chir ridge. | Dazingdale | 13/05/2016 |
