Route Summary
A bridge crosses the river
above Barrisdale to a path which in turn crosses the saltings to meet a stalker's path
below Creag Bheithe. Follow this path up zigzags, round the nose of Creag Bheithe
and through some woodland into Coire Dhorrcail. Cross the Allt Coire Dhorrcail and
climb grassy slopes West to the ridge of Druim a' Choire Odhair. Follow this
narrowing ridge to the crest of Stob a' Choire Odhair, then on to the summit ridge of
Ladhar Bheinn. A cairn at this point is often mistaken for the summit, but the true
summit lies a few hundred metres to the west. To complicate matters further on OS
trig point lies at the West end of the ridge. The best descent lies South East, over
the ridges above Coire Dhorrcail and Coire na Cabaig, over Aonach Sgoilte and down the
East ridge to marn Barrisdale. |
