Circular route from woodland walks car park reached by minor road SE of Kenmore. Followed woodland path to join Rob Roy way for a while before taking track heading S towards Creag an Sgliata, reaching summit over fairly rough ground. Continued to Sron a' Chaoineidh, Meall nan Eanchainn. Returned along ridge a little beyond bealach before descending NNW to reach N side of Glen Quaich. Contoured ENE and on to summit of Meall a' Choire Chreagaich East Top. Continued to Meall a' Choire Chreagaich and then NW to Creag an Fhudair and forest paths back to car. Some sunny spells, and a surprising amount of quite rough ground. | RobertP | 08/08/2022 |
From limited parking from high road. Track taking right fork higher up then onto ridge by animal track. Short walk over heather moor to trig. | N.Morters | 23/07/2022 |
Quick bag on route back from Aberfeldy. Parking available quite near the south track, followed this to high point then very short hop to summit. Returned to track, took the south fork, and again a short hop to the east top. The main summit is a wonderful viewpoint, and both hills are a wildlife bonanza. The east top has fabulous flora with cladonia carpet and areas of reed wetland. Big return for little effort. | hils | 06/05/2022 |

3 Tumps, assisted or hindered by a bike, from the Amulree - Kenmore road. Parking at the quarry is now blocked off by large boulders. I parked on E side of road, almost opposite track start. Cycled to high point of road (2 places to get off and push), where it's an easy stroll to the summit. | Minto | 02/08/2021 |

Parked in Kenmore village to make this a fuller day. Access via Rob Roy Way to Balmacnaughton and combined with Creag an Sgliata. Fine viewpoint. Couple of wind turbines now in the col to the north of this summit. More tracks on the ground now than on the map as well. | benalder284 | 12/05/2019 |
A pleasant short walk on an afternoon's drive. From the Glen Quaich road along the track, up a tiny ridge path and on to the summit trig, with superb views across Loch Tay, then over heather moorland to the E Top and back to the track. | Nick Down1 | 31/03/2019 |
Solo trip. Very easy by track from Glen Quaich road, then grass/short heather, no bog. | Invicta14 | 28/03/2019 |
After drive up from Leeds and evening walk making use, especially on way back, of a track not on the map. Creag na Sgliata and Meall a Choire Chreagaich. A pleasant short walk, just right for an evening stroll. | dickscroop | 18/08/2018 |
Here for the trigpoint. TP:UK log: Parked near the end of the estate track for an easy walk until 500m before the pillar. We then followed a wee track for about 200m towards the trig and heather bashed the last section. Great views. As other have said pillar has a fairy substantial crack running around it at approx mid FB height. | thejackrustles | 20/05/2018 |
Travelling S on high road from Kenmore to Glen Quaich late afternoon. Time for a little trig & hill bagging - an ideal hill - good summit views. | ger | 16/05/2018 |

A breezy day, along estate track to start then over heather to trig summit. | NormanW | 16/07/2017 |
Straightforward walk from the top of the road. Good views west to Ben Lawers range. I was observed by what turned out to be a friendly junior gamekeeper, who was concerned that I did not disturb the nesting grouse. | JohnW | 07/06/2017 |

From Acharn via Creag an Sgliata. New electrified cattle fence could be an obstacle but was switched off as cattle have been taken to lower ground fro winter. New bulldozed track also not shown on OS map. | Phaedra | 06/11/2011 |
Cloudy, dry, cold wind on top, good views. | iangalbraith | 20/09/2009 |
