Good parking area to WNW on track to Ordgarff (NJ 2625 0834). Went up through the trees, a lot of windthrow to negotiate, probably a better way. On to Carn Mor, Camock Hill, Carn Leac S and return for a 10.7km round.jonglew25/11/2023

After Càrn Mòr. Parked bike at gate to the south of the hill and enjoyed the south ridge which soon turned to limestone with the usual flower display. Very pleasant hill. Grassy descent to the A939 was an almost brake free delight.fasgadh25/07/2020
