Mountain Description
|
|
|
From the gently rounded summit, a ridge runs N to the steep and craggy Meall Garbh. To the E of Meall Garbh a path from Bridge of Gaur in Glen Rannoch gives a possible but long access route. The ridge S from the summit turns SSE to a minor top (917m) then E to Meall a' Phuill (878m). The normal ascent route is from road by the dam at Loch an Daimh to Meall a' Phuill on easy slopes.

Easy day on moderate slopes, if you have the time and good legs, then climb Stuchd an Lochain whilst you are here.

This is a great hill for beginners, with a fairly high starting point. Would reccommend the ascent of Stuchd an Lochain to complete a day's walking.
