Beinn a' Chrulaiste

Route: Beinn a' Chrùlaiste, from Altnafeidh

Corbetts: Beinn a' Chrùlaiste

Date walked: 06/03/2024

Time taken: 3.5 hours

Distance: 6km

Ascent: 652m

Parked in lay-bye at Altnafeadh on the A82. Dorothy and I crossed the road, turned right and followed the West Highland Way for around 400m to a gate. From there followed the rough path left up the hillside close to the fence to the ridge. Path then cuts right steeply up the ridge to a leveling where the path splits. Took the right branch which looks down onto the A82 and eventually steepens above which is a small lochan. From there continued up the path which eventually disappeared. Crossed some boggy peaty ground to eventually pick up the path again on the far side and followed this up to another leveling then more steeply to a further leveling and then the summit. Had some lunch at the top before descending the same way except followed the path over the rounded top of Stob Beinn a' Chrulaiste avoiding the peat bog and then back to the car. There were a few others out climbing the hill which is relatively easy thanks to the rough path.
