Parked at the big space just east of Achnasaul and walked along the B8005 to the hydro track alongside the Allt Dubh. Folloed the well surfaced track up to the hydro inlet, then the good but less so track for another few hundred metres before striking off up the steep slopes of Glass Bheinn, the wind increased with height but it remained dry, and after several stops for breath, the top was gained. Wind was strong and weather was coming from the south so headed back directly toward the hydro inlet and back to the car. A great short day out
