Its a very good path from the carpark, nothing too steep until the short climb near the top of Meall nan Tarmachan. We got some good views on the way up.

It doesn't take too long to reach Meall nan Tarmachan and you get a feel for the walk ahead.

The scramble down from here wasn't too bad - we managed to shuffle down the awkward bit without any issues. I can imagine it being a bit treacherous in the wet or ice. When you get down below the path that misses out the scramble is obvious so on hindsight it might have been useful to have been looking out for it. From here it was an easy walk over to Beinn nan Eachan - and an early lunch.

We got to the bottom of the Beinn nan Eachan but decided to carry on up to Creag na Caillich before retracing back to the bealach that drops down to the quarry and land rover track.

I think we were lucky with the walk down to the track as it wasn't too boggy but I can imagine it being really heavy going most of the year. Once at the bottom is was a nice easy stroll along the track back to the car.
