I tried a direct line from the west which soon failed due to abundant head high bracken. I had better luck with an approach over the field from Highfield track end. A large area of rough, long grass gave way to a thin corridor between banks of bracken, allowing me to reach a point only 30m from the high ground and minimizing the bracken thrash. A vague path leads along the outcrops to the summit | Colin Crawford | 04/07/2023 |
Parked to SSW at start of track. Short way along track then up cut field, into a wild meadow and then tried to follow a path of sorts to top.Back same way. | PeterD | 13/06/2023 |
6th tump of 6 on a 20km circuit from the Ferry jetty continuing from Cnoc nan Gobhar. I took a grassy track down to East Tarbert bay then walked across pasture and then crossed an irrigation channel to the west of the summit and then through some woodland and then up steeper grassland and brambles to reach ridge with narrow easy path to the top. Lovely top with good views and completes the Gigha tumps. Descent via narrow path that leads to wide grassy area but path became indistinct so just crossed over to the West where I saw a gate and this took me back onto the main road and followed it all the way down to the Ferry jetty, quickening up the pace to get the 16.30 ferry back to Tayinloan.. | Dazingdale | 17/05/2023 |
The same as sclater, don't go through the wood, it ain't a shortcut. Best to go up and down from 653513 | DavieRuts | 30/11/2022 |
3rd of 6 Tumps. We wanted to climb this from the 21m spot height to the SW, but they were cutting hay in the access field. So parked N of Tarbet, by farm machinery, and approached very easily via the newly harvested hay field to the NW. Then it's hellish; bracken, brambles, drainage ditches, scrubby willow, etc. Eventually a path of sorts is found, which is slightly easier. | Minto | 14/06/2022 |
Ferry at 10am, then Cnoc Largie, collected Charlie's old dog from the farm then onto Cnoc nan Gobhar, Eilean Garbh and then Creag Bhan with an old trig pivot benchmark close to trig. | Dugswell2 | 31/03/2022 |
Went up from near Tarbert which was hellish with almost impenetrable willow and brambles. Descent on SW ridge to gate on track to Highfield from road was fine. | sclater | 19/01/2020 |
From high point on road. Pretty easy going all the way. With R and B. | jenx | 04/06/2019 |
Easy up the pasture from near the highpoint to S, then very rough cattle plods through nasty brambles for last 250m but worth it. | Thearlaichdubh | 11/05/2019 |
From NR 6528 5134. Straight up and down over cattle pastures. More bracken and bramble near the top. | jonglew | 31/10/2018 |
