The start for the ascent of the Tump, Green Hill, was Tillyfourie, on the A944 Aberdeen to Alford Road. I parked to the west of the B993 Kemnay junction and at the beginning of the forest track where there was space for a few cars. I walked south along this[…]
Sgur na h-Ulaidh
I parked on waste ground on the north side of the A82 Ballachulish to Tyndrum Road south-east of Achnacon in Glen Coe. I then walked the short distance to the start of the private road leading to Gleann-leac-na-muidhe. This tarred road led to the farm buildings with a diversion via[…]
Easterly Mamores
I left my car in the Grey Mares Tail car park in Kinlochmore, just off the B863 at Kinlochleven, and headed up the path on the south-east side of the Allt a’ Chumhainn. Thereafter there were several paths to choose from but I obvious took the wrong one as I[…]
Meall Dearg
I parked my car just west of the bridge over the Allt Gleann a’ Chaolais, on the B863 Glen Coe Village to Kinlochleven Road, walked across the bridge, and located the start of the path up the east side of the stream. This is also the starting point for the[…]
Stob Coire Sgreamhach
I left my vehicle in the large car park on the south side of the A82 Glasgow to Fort William Road in Glen Coe, where it was already busy with tourists taking photos. I walked down the path to the River Coe then used the steps, bridge and wire supports[…]

Corryhully Horseshoe
I was staying with friends at Banavie, west of Fort William, so it was only a short drive west along the A830 Mallaig Road to the car park on the west side of the River Finnan, just beyond the Glenfinnan Visitor Centre. We set off on bikes and cycled north[…]
Lawers Range
The start of this walk was the single track road that crossed the hillside from the A827, on the north shore of Loch Tay, to Bridge of Balgie in Glen Lyon. I left my car at the start of the track for Meall nan Tarmachan as I thought this would[…]
Glen Lyon
I drove to the west end of Stronuich Reservoir in Glen Lyon, which can be reached from B846 west of Aberfeldy or across the Lawers Hill Road from the A827 east of Killin, and parked at the west side of a cattle grid. I then walked across it and climbed[…]
Bridge of Orchy Munros
I left my vehicle in the public car park to the south of the Bridge of Orchy Hotel on the A82 Crianlarich to Fort William Road, crossed this road and walked up to the railway station. Once through the underpass I was onto the open hillside. An eroded and in[…]
