Walked up from Lochearnhead, did not know which one was the peak so walked onto next peak too. Glad I did. Cloud perched just on summit. Espied 2 ptarmigan on upper reaches. Company: Solo | iandesbottes | 15/11/2023 |
From car park in Lochearnhead up Glen Kendrum track to col up to Carn Chreag and Meall an t-Seallaidh back via Meall an Fhiodhain before descending back to Col and up to Creag Mac Ranaich and it’s south top. Along ridge to Meall Sgallachd and Meall Reamhar north top before going back to track. Great views once low cloud cleared. | PeterD | 05/06/2023 |

Climbed from Lochearnhead via the old railway, then track up Glen Kendrum. Had planned on getting the adjacent Corbett aswell, but couldn't be bothered so descended east down boggy slopes into Glen Ogle then joined the Glen Ogle trial along the old milirary road. Low cloud, giving inversion conditions above 750m, 06:40hrs all in. | chillyman8 | 28/11/2020 |

3rd time up Creag Mac Ranaich but not sure which top[s] I visited on previous occasions. - 17/01/1988 and 21/12/1997. | russell61 | 19/04/2019 |
A pleasant walk in the snow from the church car park near Craggan, up Glen Kendrum, then taking in all 5 tops east of the glen, coming back down the shoulder from Meall Reamh. The ice and blue skies helped make it an excellent 4.5hr round for me and Deana. | summitter | 02/02/2019 |
As per SMC guidebook, walked round from car park in Lochearnhead to lane by church, only to find that church does allow parking in its small car park on non-service days for a donation. Standard route up the track to the bealach & then steeply up to Creag Mac Ranaich. Mist drifted in briefly but then cleared taking with it the cloud which had hung over Meall an t-Seallaidh all day. Back to the col & then directly up to lochan NW of Cam Chreag & then on to Meall an t-Sealliadh for a great view. Decided to minimise the heather bashing by heading NE & aiming at the bend in the outward track at 552243. Could have done without the extra pavement bashing after the church. | NotReallyABagger | 27/12/2018 |
