Parked carefully in Ardtalnaig. Road to just past Claggan then good zig-zag track almost to point 642. Easy walk along the Shee to the top then steeply down WSW to track. Took left fork to ford across Allt a'Chloidh then followed old track to gate in fence at NN 70712 38338. Pleasant but neglected zig-zag path through the trees back to the road.TRG31811/10/2023

From Ardtalnaig. North to south along the ridge line using the zig zags track for ascent. Steep descent at the south end. The gash in the hill (a local called it the Sword Cut) is spectacular.Fife Walking17/07/2022

Google maps shows that the N ridge is a manky mess of hags and bogs and the forecast was for 40 mph wind, so I opted for the S ridge. This gives a superb, easy walk. Parked between Achomer and the bridge, up past Claggan, then the good track up Gleann a' Chilleine, a beautiful U-shaped valley. The river was lively and deep but there is a one plank metal bridge marked by a post slightly upstream of the wide deep ford. Up the track to the S ridge, then steep grass and a little heather to start, then an easy stroll up a nice grassy ridge. Frosty on top. No view but lovely all the same. Nice clean, dry feet.Gill02/03/2022

From Creagan na Beinne. South down Dunan Hill, then came off the ridge just past Allt Dearg, to the track junction, not too bad. Then took the hill track to its high point at the south end of the ridge. Up the heathery, mostly pathless ridge to the summit.Owen B17/07/2021

As per nick downs, but a bit more like grinner on top, up to waste deep at one point, but when the views opened up, it was spectacular. 3hr round trip, was wanting to do creagan an bienne, but think that was too ambitious in the conditions. It'll still be there!Nicky C27/12/2020

From Ardtalnaig, followed old track through wood to SE, leaving it at wood edge and heading up ridge to Tullich Hill, continuing on to Meall nan Oighreag and Creag Uchdag, dropping down to Allt a'Chartan and following the track on the N side E to a point about 1km SW of Dunan, contouring round to a point WSW of summit of Shee of Ardtalnaig, then up steep W slopes to summit, descending along ridge to peat hags, then more steeply down to the track back to Ardtalnaigkdbennett15/09/2019

Chosen to make the best of winter after sun, and avoid freshly fallen snow, but a really fine walk. Parked by the gate across the lane to Claggan Farm, and took the zig-zag tracking up the NW flank of the Shee, which leads to the summit ridge by a green hut. Easy going over frozen peat hags and past the fascinating cleft and ancient landslip of Ciste Buide a'Claidheimh to the summit. Descended the S end of the ridge and took the track back through Gleann a'Chilleine. First rate views along Glen Almond, to Ben Chonzie and across Loch tay to the Lawers group.Nick Down120/01/2019

From the south, detouring off the Rob Roy way.summitter30/08/2018
A short walk for a very poor day for weather - wind and rain. Drove up track/road from Ardtainaig to gate (could have gone all the way to Dunan) then continued on track round to S side to avoid headwind and rain on ridge. An easy walk even in the conditions and would have been a very pleasant outing on a better day.dickscroop26/08/2018

Overnight route from Ardtalnaig, parking just S of start of minor road. Crossed to N side of bridge then took route on N side of stream before heading up to Beinn Bhreac (fairly flat summit), SSE to beallach then steady climb to Creagan na Beinne. Descended S then steeply WSW to fork in track leading to SE end of Shee of Ardtalnaig. Steep climb to flat summit ridge, camped a little further along before descending N end of ridge to reach minor road back to Ardtalnaig. Mainly cloud, some rain and wind over the tops.RobertP22/07/2017

W Jenx, able to drive to farm at Claggan where pleasant farmer/ghillie gave permission to park. Followed track easily to summit ridge then reasonable line through the hags to top. The cleft is amazing when yoy stumble over it! Back same way although can drop off SE end and follow other track back to Claggan.nordicstar22/09/2014
