| tarted at the bridge then ignored the guide book & went pretty much straight up Carn Bhrunachain to bag this wee top, then over to Carn Dearg. Craig Tharsuinn, 2km East beckoned so off we went. Small peat hags and continuing on the pathless terrain. Short heather & rocks made for a very pretty, but huge, rockery, a smaller version would complement most gardens. Back over 2 smaller tops of Carn Dearg North Top & Sgurr an Fhithich. Longer grass to descend, but soon on a small path alongside Allt na Reinich, then back at the bridge. Thoroughly enjoyable, reasonably dry and pretty easy for pathless. Great views especially of Craig Meagaidh | Lynnebe | 04/08/2023 |

| From bridge at 331909 a stiff pull up to Carn Dearg N top; then on good ground to Creag Tharsuinn; up to Carn Dearg;Carn Bhrunachtan and descending contour round to Leana Mhor and down along the bridge to the former bothy and back along the river bank which was probably the lweast pleasant part of the walk - poor ground | dickscroop | 08/09/2018 |
