Myself and Alma Aurea were just having an easy day in the nature reserve after 4 consecutive munro days but we decided to pop up to this summit when we saw there was a path. Some nice views at/near the high point.meltdiceburg04/06/2023
From the nature reserve cp, followed road and then onto green trail. Near high point up through a small wood and onto tussocky higher slopes.Campbell Singer13/05/2022
Parked at Duror cemetery and followed a mixture of bad and good paths through the nature reserve to the summit. On to Beinn Keil.Thearlaichdubh19/03/2020
Climb to top of nature reserve. On my own.alwaysinshorts06/03/2019
Success at the third attempt, as the April bracken was less of a barrier than last August. From the nature reserve using the green trail, then left along beside the wood, up a straight track through the trees, and then over rough grass and heather up the south-west ridge to the summit. A warm and sunny spring afternoon, but views pretty hazy. New planting beside the track on the west side and near the top. Back down more or less the same way to the A828 and bus back to Oban.mainnirnamfiadh11/04/2018
Tried again without including Beinn Keil, and got a good bit higher than last time, but frustratingly had to turn back only two or three hundred metres from the top in order to be sure of catching the last bus home. Consolation prize consisted of fresh air, exercise for my recently-mended hip, and wonderful views in the sunshine.mainnirnamfiadh09/08/2017
Approached after Beinn Keil, but still well short of the top when it was time to turn back to be sure of catching the bus back to Oban.mainnirnamfiadh18/07/2017
