From layby at Druimavuic, estate track E towards Coire Buidhe, then path up NE ridge to Druim a' Vuic, continuing up to Beinn Sgulaird South top and along to Meall Garbh, Beinn Sgulaird and Beinn Sgulaird North top. Returning the same way. Hot sunny day. | richard69 | 29/05/2022 |

Parked at Druimavuic for a circuit of 6 Simms. 4/6 | PGCE | 29/06/2021 |
From Druimavuic, past rhododendrons blooming in the gardens bordering the track, turning onto the S ridge of Beinn Sgulaird at the cairn, detouring from the path to Druim a'Vuic, over BS South Top, Meall Garbh , BS and BS North Top. Superb views over lochs Creran and Etive and into the Central Highlands from the North Top. On return, I cut down after Meall Garbh to pick up the start of the track leading to Druimavuic. This took a fair amount of weaving around to avoid crags and steep grass, so keeping to the path on the return is probably preferable. | Nick Down1 | 15/05/2021 |
