| First of a 3 munro day from Kinlochleven, less strenuous than feared and good path most of the way. parked at Grey Mare's Tail carpark by church. Followed mapped maze of paths, sometimes signed Loch Eilde to Loch track, which I crossed to follow obvious path to Coire an Lochan and up the SE ridge of Sgurr Eilde Mor. Descended west on obvious path, steep and loose at top, along north side of Coire an Lochain and followed path north to Binnein Beag. | Denise | 30/05/2023 |
