Sgiath a' Chaise bike-and-hike.

Parked at wide forestry entrance just opposite caravan park at the Southern side of Strathyre. No gates at all from the start up to the mast, so cycling was nice and straightforward. Gradient was fairly gentle all the way up to mast.

Then we backtracked about 20 metres to gate, where we left the bikes, and walked up to the bealach between the two summits (one summit is a metre lower than the other), and headed over heather to the top.

Same route on the way down.
:D

I was up there today too. Beautifully clear day even when it started raining.
