Mountain Description
The N slopes of Creag Uchdag rise gently from the shores of Loch Tay to the summit of Meall nan Oighreag (823m). From here a broad ridge runs S to Creag Uchdag were it turns SE and descends to Creag Tharsuinn overlooking InverGeldie in Glen Lednock. The SW slopes fall steeply to the Loch Lednock Reservoir. An ascent is possible from the N on easy slopes or from the S on more complex terrain. There are many steep and or craggy slopes so careful navigation is required

Approached from the south after parking below the Lednock Dam, very pleasant walk along the loch to a circular sheep enclosure, then directly north all the way up, was lucky with a clear day, fabulous view of the North face of Ben Lui from this mountain.
