A fabulous walk for midsummer's day, easy going, superb views. From Scarisdale, easy up dry pasture, then heathery hillside with good animal tracks up to short grass and scree dodging up through small crags to pt 504. Lovely stroll along Beinn a' Ghraig ridge, then down and up to Beinn nan Gabhar. Down and up to Beinn Fhada, lovely walk along the splendid ridge, hands out of pockets at one point. Down the N ridge, crag dodging. Dry feet all day in trainers, no waterproof socks needed.Gill21/06/2021

With Jenx, parking near road bridge over burn coming from currie between the Marilyn pair. Quad bike track up to 200m then through grass and light heather slopes to craggiest ground. Easy through to sub-top then main top. Continued easily round the circuit to Beinn nan Gabhar then via higher col to Beinn Fhada. Back along its fine ridge and SE ridge to start.nordicstar24/04/2015
