Mountain Description
Carn nan Gobhar has the general shape of a triangular pyramid. A SSE ridge leads down to Mullach na Moille then turns ESE towards the access path by the Allt Mullardoch to Glen Cannich. The WNW ridge links to Sgurr na Lapaich and the ENE ridge leads to Creag Dubh from where gentle N slopes give access to Glen Strathfarrar. Generally easy to moderate slopes on the ridges, but some steep slopes on the flanks.

Park just before Dam, and follow initial good vehicle track which gives way to peaty agrocat route(higher route on OS) to bridge over Allt Mullardoch. Ascend heathery SE ridge of Mullach na Maoile, ground improves to easy walking on ridge to final stony pull up to large cairn, the actual summit is 200m further on.
