Parking end of the Mealasta road. Tuath first, then down to here. On to Naideabhal a-Muigh, Griomabhal, Steinsbhal (sub-tump), Mocleitean, Aird Mhor Mill Tamna, Aonaig Mhor Tamna Siar, returning as close to the coast as possible for an 18k round.jonglew07/05/2023
Parked at Mealasta for a circuit of Naideabhal a-Muigh, Laibheal a' Deas, Laibheal a Tuath and Taireabhal. Good views, including to St Kilda.PGCE02/04/2023
A three Marilyn day from Breinis. First the climb, over thankfully dry bog, to Mealaisbhal. The boulder summit added a spot of fun to an otherwise steep slog. On to Cracabhal, taking the SW flank as route of least resistance. Laibheal a Tuath and Laibheal a' Deas also called for skill to avoid the most difficult terrain. Luckily it was a gloriously sunny and windless day so route finding was easier than would normally be the case. By the time we got to the top of Naideabhal a-Muigh legs were becoming weary, but we pushed on to Griomabhal to bag that all important third Marilyn. We returned back to the camper by heading west over slab and heather towards the sea, veering NW to the road head and a well earned refreshing dip once lower ground was attained. 6.30 hours total.summitter10/09/2022
Coast path from road end, Griomabhal, Naideabhal a Muidhe, Laibheal a Deas, down through the lochans. Would have been easier to carry on to Laibheal a Tuath and down the west ridge. Fabulous, amazing slabby hills.PeteN04/01/2019
Parked above the beach then along the coast before climbing Griomabhal, Naideabhal a-Muigh, Laibheal a'Deas,Laibheal a'Tuath, Cracabhal and then met Anne and Eric lunching on Mealaisbhal on a dry grey day but with lovely views.Dugswell221/09/2014
Fantastic/ magical ridge walk. Solo ascent. From north end of Brenish to Mealisval and along ridge to Griomaval. Initially frosty but sun never really warmed up the ridge. High cloud so great views of Flannan Isles and St Kilda the whole way. Views south to the North Harris hills and Southern Isles. 6 hours in all.alexmaclennan30/03/2013
