From the B829 besides Loch Dhu, taking the track to Loch Dhu House and onwards to Stronmacnair and up Gleann Dubh to a gate at the end of the forest a km SE of Comer. The bracken was dead so a relatively simple climb up to Beinn Dubh and Sgiath Ghorm. Reversed the route back to the car, where a flat tyre put paid to any further bagging additions. | summitter | 21/04/2022 |
From the forest road that starts just east of the cattle grid on the Inversnaid road. A raised track zigzags through a felled area, petering out before a fence and the hill beyond. Tussocky going to the summit of Beinn Dubh and, via the shore of Beinn Dubh Lochan to Sgiath Ghorm. A magnificent panorama of mountains; from this angle, Ben Lomond in profile looks like a Homburg hat. A traversing descent took me back to the outward route. | Nick Down1 | 28/11/2020 |

From Comer track at end of trees. | chalky1953 | 09/11/2017 |
Up from Comer track once trees had ended. Long grass and bracken in full growth, better once on high. Ambushed by thunderstorm walking back down the track | Colin Crawford | 21/06/2017 |
From beyond N end of Loch Chon. Started on lower forest road, and up the path marked on map - but not really there on the ground. The higher forest track from nearer summit of pass would be easier. Followed this road S to it's end, then up through trees the open hill. Onwards to Beinn Dubh. | Minto | 25/07/2014 |
