Via the Ardfern Yacht Centre. Great views. | DavieRuts | 20/04/2023 |
The one island in Loch Craignish missed on the boat trip few days ago. From boatyard carpark approx half hpur before low tide, across weed and rocks. Kept to the shoreline until spotting a grassy ramp starting around NM 8092 0414 leading directly to summit area. Views and bluebells in equally large quantites. | jonglew | 19/05/2018 |
Just about at low tide with Darren Giddins but not early enough as for deep wade on way back. | vegibagger | 12/05/2018 |
2nd of 10 tumps today with Charles Everett, having stopped off to bag An Cnap near Aduane Gardens. We got over no problem, easy route up right from Northern tip to Cairn, i continued to explore 62m Spot height in amongst the Hazel trees with carpets of Bluebells for ground cover, returning via a grassy ramp, and 2 ft of water to contend with to get across the causeway. 
Next tump: Cnoc Lerigoligan. 
PS- this tump was not missed from my Craignish Isles trip as it is tidal and therefore not essential to get to by boat. | Dazingdale | 12/05/2018 |
With Jenx at end of the Marhofn '15 trip. Nice tidal island with good views | nordicstar | 08/06/2015 |
Channel dry at mid tide hence approx 0m saddle. From boatyard car park; steep climb, path along ridge. | RHW | 07/06/2015 |
From Ardfern Marina at low tide. | Tony J | 07/06/2015 |
Intermittent trail along the crest. | Smudge | 07/06/2015 |
Dry across sea. Path to large cairn at the top. | chrisbien | 07/06/2015 |
Low tide, high wind, great view. | Martin R | 06/06/2015 |
Took advantage of the exceptionally low tide the day after the eclipse of the sun and convenient bus times from Oban to Ardfern. The south-east edge of the Ardfern Yacht Centre is a wall of large rough stones, but there is a sort of quay pointing towards the island - it's just a matter of looking between the boats. Once across to the island and through the gate cross the flatter ground and slightly round the end of the ridge, then up and along the crest to the summit. Back the same way. | mainnirnamfiadh | 21/03/2015 |
Probably accessible 65%+ of time (not just at low tide). Parked 200m before Ardfern Marina. 2m tall bracken and fierce midges. Good training for jungle combat. Suggest Oct - Apr. | jimbloomer | 26/06/2014 |
