3rd time. | russell61 | 05/12/2023 |
With Louise Waters, Karen Webber, Jack Reed and Gemma Andreae. Due to me being very uncomfortable walking at night, Louise had suggested this short walk during a full moon to build up that confidence. 
 
Parked at Alva Glen car park, set off at 7pm following the path above Rhodders Farm, then directly up to Gowls Cross the track leading from Silver Glen into Alva Glen. Then followed the path straight up The Nebit. Descended to the sheep pens below Ben Buck to the north and back out along the Silver Glen. Back to the car for 9pm. | chillyman8 | 27/11/2023 |

Circular route from Alva Glen car park. Followed path and track to NE of The Nebit, then easily up to the summit. Returned and then climbed NE up track to reach summit of Ben Ever. Continued to Ben Buck and Ben Buck NE top. Used windfarm track and then pathless terrain to contour round NW of Ben Buck then easy climb to Craighorn. Continued on to Blairdenon Hill and S along long ridge to Bengengie Hill and Mid Cairn. Descended down SE spur and obvious gulley to reach path down W side of Alva Glen to reach car park. Some rain, but reasonable visibility for much of route. | RobertP | 13/10/2022 |

Round of Craig Leith, Bengengie, Craighorn and The Nebit. You have a hell of a drop to cross the Glenwinnel burn - I traversed back NE before the steep bit to pick up the track to the E, then it is easy on paths up and over The Nebit and back to Alva. | Thearlaichdubh | 08/09/2019 |

From the car park at NS884975, Alva. Solo. On footpaths to join a broad track that zig-zags up the hillside from Rodders Farm. Followed the broad track upwards to a junction, where I took the track to the left. I found a track/path going up the south ridge of the Nebit, not shown on the OS 1:25,000 map. Followed this to the summit. There is a cairn on the summit. It was warm, dry and pleasant. Continued to Ben Ever. | pwbellarby | 06/08/2016 |
