| The two Beinn Maol Chaluim tops from the southern flank. Parking is possible in a long passing place just past the forest above Lochan Urr, then its a bit of a steep slog through long grass and bracken, aided initially by a very narrow muddy line taken by what looks like a mix of deer and Corbetters. Terrain gets easier as you climb. The summit ridge is a joy to walk on and to gaze at the views in all directions. Highly recommended. 3.5hrs there and back. | summitter | 31/10/2023 |
