We had a beautiful day to walk Conival and Ben More Assynt.
After climbing Conival and Ben More Assynt, our guidebooks suggest there is a route off the ridge by heading to the southern top of Ben More Assynt and then heading down to the south end of the loch.
We could see no way down that we fancied from there; v steep and loose ground.
Instead, we carried on on the ridge in a southerly direction until the gradient eases and then headed south west before turning north back to the loch. You can then head back towards your route out.
