Meall Ghaordaidh from Glen Lochay
Meall Ghaordaidh (named on some OS maps as Meall Ghaordie) is one of the less distinguished Munros, the usual ascent from Glen Lochay being up a broad grassy shoulder, though the upper section is rockier and the summit rewards with a good view. The Glen Lyon side looks more interesting but is little visited.
Terrain
Rough track, then hill path - very boggy in places. Rockier near summit.
Public Transport
No public transport to the start.
Start
Space to park 100m west of bridge over Allt Dhuin Croisg.
