From small parking area a little NW of the distillery (NR 4174 7339). Sgarbh Breac first then a near enough direct line across to here. On to Beinn Thrasda, the Rhuvaal lighthouse and return for a 22k round.jonglew08/05/2022

Cycled from Gruinart, then walked along coast - sheep and deer tracks with spectacular stacks and arches. Very boggy - weather v. windy and wet at summit but clearer on way there and back. Round trip ~5 hours.iangpark02/07/2017
