Came in from the north, parking at Fersit in Glen Spean. Good paths for most of the way though boggy in bits. Approx 27k/ 9 hours with some great views. A nice alternative not requiring the use of any trains. In summer Chno Dearg and Stob Choire Sgriodain could easily be taken in.

Tried to follow MM's GPS route, but ended up in a plantation surrounded by deer fences and were forced to double back. Apparantly there is a style, but best route was up the clear path where the track splits (to Tulloch). The Station Tearoom is nice (and the prices reflect the remoteness)

Started at head of loch, followed the soggy path to the sky line and then up to the summit which as per usual was covered in cloud so couldn't see anything. This didn't dampen our spirts as we had done Carn Dearg and Sgor Gaibhre the day before in good conditions, windy but great views over Bed Alder and the whole of the Rannoch region.
Whatever you do, do not walk in from Rannoch station, get the train to Corrour station and this turns into a superb day. In fact if you get the early train (9.05) you can capture Carn Dearg, Sgor Gaibhre and Beinn na' Lap in one day without too much effort!!
