Last top of the day , returned to Bealach Fhiona and dropped down and walked back out to the car at Inverailort.Fellhugger25/02/2022
Classic Rois-bheinn round from Lochailort - An Stac round to Druim Fiaclach.quadbarrel18/06/2021
Awful summit with monstrous cairn, easy descent to Roshven Farm on good terrain, used ugly track from 300m up.alda02/06/2021
Took gate just up from Roshven Farm, followed walk in local guide. Ground very boggy until last 100m or so, amazing views out over Western seaboard. Be aware, there are no clear paths to climb this peak, you much talk a route comfortable for you. Bagged East summit in same walk. Followed small boundary wall all the way down valley under shadow of An Stac. Crossed field towards right corner of fenced plantation. Take extreme caution when going this way, very deeply tussocked ground. Faint path takes you through overgrown bracken and Birch woodland along plantation boundary. Path lead down into river gorge and out through farmstead onto A861. I would not attempt this walk in anything other than good weather, if you are not used to wilder walking, do your research. All this aside, a fantastic walk with some of the best views you'll get in the UK.RyParks25/07/2019
Gravel parking by the side of the A861 where it crosses the Allt Dhughaill. Found a rather hidden gate immediately to the south of the stream, leading into the plantation. After about 20 minutes emerged and crossed the deer fence at 737786. Difficulties over. Then south to the nose of the west shoulder. Then east up pathless but reasonable terrain. Cloud base at 500m, stiff breeze behind me.Owen B21/06/2018
Another day in the sun - collecting Corbetts and sunburn en route. Days in Moidart don't get much better than this.summitter26/03/2017
Circuit of three Corbetts and 4 Corbett tops from Beinn Coire nan Gall to An Stac. Excellent day despite poor weather, hail showers in first half.Had some route problems near start due to new hydro station roads - river high, could not find bridge so crossed higher up at damdickscroop01/07/2016

On Inverailort- Allt a'Bhuiridh- Druim Fiaclach- Sg na Ba Glaise- RoisBheinn- Roshven walk. Seemed more than a 50 m ascent from the Ma summit in the cloud and rain. Very slippery on way down its broad breast to Roshven. Cycled back to start in sunshine.pwheeler27/05/2002
