From Cnoc na h-Eilde and on to the North Top. | sclater | 05/01/2022 |
10th top of 11 on a circuit from Kilmartin, approached from Cnoc na h-Eilde. Gorgeous view on this day. I stopped for a coffee break before tackling the North top... | Dazingdale | 07/09/2021 |
Via Kilmartin. Along with North Top, a wet Fathers Day. | DavieRuts | 20/06/2021 |
Up the Ballibrad track from Kilmartin, taking the first available right turn, which leads to the west side of Maol achadh-bheinn. A quick climb up its grassy slopes then over a well-built stone wall to its neighbouring North Top. Animal tracks help route-find amongst the complex terrain to Beinn Bhan, the higher level ground perhaps being the easiest to navigate. Then baby-heads and bracken on the NW passage to Creag Bhreac, a handy stone track making the final climb to its top much easier than would otherwise be the case. The steady rise to Barr Mor is relatively hazard free, then simply a drop down back to the Ballibrad track and the historical and touristic delights of Kilmartin. | summitter | 16/05/2021 |
Round of Barr Mor, Maol Achadh Bheinn N top and S top from Kilmartin car park using access road. Fine looking hill from N top. Thrn made mistake of heading directly down. 300m of dense brambles in area between felled forest and roadside. Excellent viewpoint though. | Thearlaichdubh | 13/05/2019 |
Circuit from Kilbride farm. | chalky1953 | 21/03/2018 |
Bus to Kilmartin, farm road eastwards out of village, right on to track just before second gate, track to parking area about 838984 (two containers sitting), faint path and rough grass south-eastwards to top. Dry but cold, views to Mull, Jura, and (briefly) Arran. Down north-eastwards to wall, making for north top. | mainnirnamfiadh | 22/03/2017 |
