Parked at Tornapress bridge for a circuit of the 4 Beinn Bhan Simms. 4/4 | PGCE | 25/05/2023 |
Parked on the road above the salmon farm where there is space for one car at NG 822411. Up the grassy ridge to this pleasant summit. Great views of the A chioch ridge. Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 24/09/2022 |
Parked by bridge at Drochaid Mhor, walked SW along road to where overhead wires cross the road on a bend (NG826411), then up Beinn Bhan SE ridge, working over and around rock outcrops, to South Top, then main summit and round the edge of Coire an Fhamhair to Sròn Coire an Fhamhair, and W to its West Top, returning to rim of Coire an Fhamhair and descending on an eroded trail down to the corrie floor, then SE past the N shore of Lochan Coire na Poite and across the moorland on a variety of intermittent trails, eventually reaching the stalkers' path, and back to Drochaid Mhor (6h20m) | kdbennett | 03/05/2022 |
Up the good track from the bridge on road to, almost, the loch and then to and straight up the nose of Sron Coire an Fhamhair (Ct). Very exposed in places and not easy. Better line is to left in the coire and up headwall on grass. then south along ridge to Beinn Bhan (C), a diversion to A Cioch (I think??) and on to Beinn Bhan S top (Ct) and drop easly down to road. | dickscroop | 07/05/2021 |

With two friends. We parked beside the bridge where the Applecross road crosses the Russel Burn. We walked NE to join the ridge coming down from Beinn Bhàn. We ascended this ridge easily, going over a couple of minor tops with impressive views of A’ Chioch. We reached the summit of Beinn Bhàn where we had lunch. We went SW over a minor top and found a stalkers’ path going down to Bealach nan Arr. We followed the path which continued beyond the bealach under Carn Dearg. We left the path to go S to reach point 776m, and over two minor tops to reach the summit of Sgùrr a’ Chaorachain. We descended the steep slopes to the SE. They were easier than expected with small rocky steps, where difficulties could be easily got round. The weather held good all day in spite of the forecast not being all that promising. | pwbellarby | 08/11/1997 |
