Track then path along the north shore of Loch a' Bhraoin from the A832 CP to almost Feinasheen then northwards up the flank above Creag Ruigh a' Bhraghad until W of Creag Rainich. Before tackling the main summit we wandered over to the satellite West Top. Then a lovely, if pathless, ridge walk over Meall Dubh and Meall na Doire na Saobhaidhe to Meall an t-Sithe. Easy NE descent back to the road and a short last mile on tarmac. 5.25hrs. | summitter | 12/11/2023 |
With Sue, on another cold and cloudy summer day. Cycled from A 832 car park along all of the North shore of Loch A'Bhraoin to cottage at Lochivaron then up hillside to bag Meal Dubh then summit of Creag Rainich and W top. Return same way. Bikes made a good use of the track. | Frank | 12/06/2019 |
