Surprisingly enjoyable little hill, done late in the day. I hadn't expected that most of the woodland would be broadleaf, conifers noticeable by their absence. The final rough track was quite walkable and got me to within two hundred meters of the top. I checked out all of the contour rings but my altimeter suggested that the listed high point is accurate. It was almost dark when I regained the car park. | Colin Crawford | 28/11/2022 |
Bus along B845 to Glen Nant National Nature Reserve car park. A pleasant and easily-graded stroll north-westwards along most of the length of the forest road. Near the far end of this there are forestry tracks shown on online 1:25k maps in addition to what is on printed versions, but these are very rough, overgrown, and hard to detect. The critical junction about 0015 2850 is in railway terms a “trailing junction”, and easy to miss, but the very rough track north-eastwards from there for about 250 metres passes to the west of the summit, which is then reached over very rough ground. Several tops of very similar height. Cool and misty early on, warmer and sunnier later with thin high cloud. Ben Cruachan playing hide-and-seek to the north-east. Return much the same way, and surprise encounter in car park with fellow-student from fifty years back! | mainnirnamfiadh | 28/08/2021 |
With Adrian Rayner and Darren Giddins exploring all three 150m contour rings in light drizzle | vegibagger | 20/05/2018 |
All tops done with Dazingdale and Charles Everett. | Adrian | 20/05/2018 |
With Adrian and Charles, an exploration of the knolls in a felled area of the Caledonian Forest reserve, recording 157m @ NN 00475 28702, the most Northerly of the Four knolls visited. 
 
I also recorded 155m @ NN 00443 28565, 152m @ NN 00103 28604 and 156m @ NN 00266 28490. 
 
Unfortunately I had to abandon hopes of bagging Am Barr as I had run out of time and needed to catch the train back to Glasgow and then back home, whereas Adrian and Charles later bagged that top! | Dazingdale | 20/05/2018 |
Be aware this is not the hill in the nature reserve but much further along the track. Felled trees at summit area , maybe they were non native ? | chalky1953 | 24/04/2018 |
