Faint ATV tracks along the ridge mean the terrain is reasonably OK. | 49pp | 07/06/2023 |

From Killiehuntly up new metalled road up Gleann Chomhraig as far as 786943. Over deer fence, top 3 strands electrified, to Croidh-la then this one. Back to bike, leaving the two Simms on the East side of the glen for another day. | NormanW | 06/02/2023 |
3 of 4: From Meallach Bheag. With Karen. | ChrisR | 09/11/2022 |
Jogged up path from Drumguish & over Croidh-la; dry, breezy, mostly cloudy but moments of warm sunshine. Cool in the wind. Some lovely views. | NorfolkPT21 | 15/07/2022 |
From drumguish biked in to approx 787 944 unmapped track, croidh la, clach mheall, meallach bheag, meallach mhor repeat, meall an dubh chadha, carn dearg, aonach mor, meall buidhe. | robertphillips | 07/08/2021 |
We parked in a space just along the private road from Tromie Bridge then walked up said road until the start of the footpath at 788978. This really pleasant narrow path meanders through heather and young pines and birch all the way to Croidh-la, then continues to Coach-mheall. The next stretch to Meallach Bheag is less obvious but does keep you on the high ground. Meallach Mhor was snow-topped but easily surmounted via a further narrow path through the heather and stone, then turning east to Meall an Dubh-chadha presented the worse ground of the circuit - peat hags and no discernible footpath. An ATV track from the summit heads down the northern flank, eventually meeting a non-metalled road, presumably installed to aid the vast woodland establishment throughout Gleann Chomnraig. It eventually comes close to the footpath we initially climbed that morning, enabling easy descent back to Glen Tromie. 5.15 hrs total walk. | summitter | 12/04/2021 |

On my high level return from Meallach Mhor(qv) to Drumguish. This is a broad ridge above the moor, but it's integral to the route and leads to the best ridge walking of the day over Croidh-La | pwheeler | 17/07/2018 |
Walked from Meallach Bheag. | 187lenny | 11/07/2018 |
