I parked up at the east end and made the short walk up to the turn off and then up the hill.

Getting up on to the bealach gives the first good few of Forcan Ridge.

I could see a good few people already up there making there way slowing up.

I made my way up to the very bottom of the ridge and met a woman who said she had decided to turn back, but her group had decided to continue up the ridge without her. She pointed out the route they had taken so I said my thanks and started making my way up.


When I got to the bad step, I took the left route down and then through the tight rock chute.

From there, it was an easy walk to the summit. After a spot of lunch and a seat by myself at the summit for 10mins it was time to head off again for Sgurr na Sgine.


At this point I didn't think it would be much effort, but the initial slope up from the bealach was steep and the mid-day heat and humid weather made it a right slog to get up there. From there it was straight forward to reach the summit cairn and after admiring the views for a bit there was nothing left to do but head back to the car.


Taking the path back via Faochag was the most direct route, but the descent is a steep one!
