Used bike on track although it’s not great after the track split.BaggerGutt18/06/2022
Parked at Ariundle car park for a 26km circuit of 1 Highland Five and 4 Simms, bypassing the Marilyns on route. 3/5. Easy traverse along W side of Sgurr Dhomhnuill.PGCE14/05/2022
From the Ariundle CP via the lead mine. This is a superb peak. I overheated in pure sunshine as the glens were filled with fog all day. Descent to Sgurr a' Chaorainn pretty steep - ended up going via the flat area between the summit and Druim Leac a' Sgiathain.sclater18/12/2021
A good round from the Ariundle car park. Biked up to just short of the track ork (about 4km), continued past lead mine workings before crossing stream to head east to Sgurr na h-ighinn. Don't think it matters too much where you cross the stream, no obvious line but no obvious difficulties either. Round over Sgurr Dhomhnuill and Druim Garbh. Came down ridge about 1km and dropped off se on easy grass to valley and back out. A good day.dickscroop31/07/2021

First top on a hot, sunny May day horseshoe from Druim Glas. Very dry conditions so quick and easy round ... but wouldn't fancy it in wet and boggy conditions.summitter06/05/2017
Horseshoe route over Sgurr Dhomhnuill from high point in road to W. Complex route to Meall Loachan Mhic Gille Dhuibh, more easily to Druim Garbh, descent to col then very steep ascent to summit of Sgurr Dhomhnuill. Continued S along ridge to Sgurr Na h-Ighinn and descent W over Druim Leac a'Sgiathain then traverse to start point. Cold breeze but clouds above the tops.RobertP12/04/2016

On our route to Sgurr Dhomhnuill(qv for more derail) on a very windy day. With a NW'ly, the buffetting wasn't too bad on this top and we could appreciate the fine mountain walk. With Pete.pwheeler22/05/2013
