Schiehallion with Peter - Walkhighlands route | hummusg | 03/08/2023 |
From Dun Coillich community car park clockwise on green & white path, and white dot path to summit. Paths good, single file. Continued clockwise on green & white path to boardwalk in NW & connected straight to Schiehallion path. Straight up & down, back on board walk & back clockwise on boggy green path. Some well placed benches around Dun Coillich with great views of Schiehallion. | Lynnebe | 12/07/2023 |
From Braes of Foss car park (£3 coins only). Quick up and down while passing through. Good path generally, gets vague in the boulders. Cloud base around 500m with cold E wind, creating sub zero feels like temperature on the top. Car park was busy on arrival post lunchtime, but most people were descending by then leaving the summit and descent very quiet. With Gillian | richard69 | 29/04/2023 |
From Braes of Foss car park, follow the path and cairns. For Tove's 800th Marilyn.

With Dan ( sort of interesting on YouTube ) 
 
A return visit for me, it seems a bigger hill now… all snow avoidable, views a tad muted but extensive in most directions today. | stig_nest | 25/03/2023 |

Walked with Steven Purss, Weather clear wind southerly 20mph visibility good & dry throughout. No issues with walk. Completed approx 2 hours up & 2 hours down with lunch, beer & dram @ summit. | Jr McG | 14/05/2022 |
From Braes of Foss car park clear skies very windy. | colinfielding | 23/04/2022 |
Wind and sleet on the ridge, clouds below the summits, slushy snow and drifted snow, hard going at times. No views. | Cumbrianexile | 12/02/2022 |
Usual way from Braes of Foss. First snows of winter made the boulders at the top very slippery. Gusty gales added to the excitement. | robphys | 21/10/2021 |
Fiona and Christina | nrowan | 09/10/2021 |
With Ali. Standard route from Braes of Foss. Cracking day, busy for a September midweek. | paddyirish | 29/09/2021 |
Usual route from Braes of Foss. | Mark Jackson | 20/08/2021 |
From Breas of Foss car park. The kids’ first munro. Very straightforward path - set off early so had a quiet ascent but busier as we came down. Stopped for picnic and to find the geocache at the top! | thecoopers | 03/08/2021 |
Arrived CP at 08:15; nearly full and machine broken so staff said I could go free. Was first back to car of the day so ended up as de-facto-'how long to the top?'-answerer. Nice little inversion. There and back in just over 2.5hrs with 15 mins of dawdling - definitely easiest Munro yet. S. Pearl-Bordered Frits just before car. Birnam Hill afterwards. | iangpark | 02/07/2021 |
From Braes of Foss CP (£2 cash only). Very busy! | Geoff Briggs | 18/06/2021 |
with heather | Pilotralph | 03/06/2021 |
Perfect weather, up and back to car park, busy place. | PDuncan82 | 16/05/2021 |
Tourist route in the rain. | quadbarrel | 08/11/2020 |
Did this one with Gill | supermario | 29/09/2020 |
Beautiful clear morning, dry no wind until descending. A bit deceptive nearing what we thought was the summit. First Munro for the kids and furry pal, loved it. | ainzwils | 27/09/2020 |
Parked near monument to the Ordnance Survey then up the waymarked track and along the rocky ridge to the summit. Didn't disappoint. | briandavies | 26/09/2020 |
Lovely autumn walk | Alan Bothwell | 21/09/2020 |
With MK. My second ever Munro! Out and back from the car park on the Schiehallion Road. | Nab Scar | 14/09/2020 |

Climbed with Ben and Lucy. | honey badger | 22/08/2020 |
Ascent by the west ridge and then descended via the normal route to Braes of Foss | geoffh12 | 19/08/2020 |
Braes of Foss then straight up the JMT path. 3 hours 45 mins all in. Biggest problem was parking. | garyhoney | 29/07/2020 |
With Northern Hills. Crystal clear day with little snow. Traversed to Lassintullich. | deurgar | 31/12/2019 |
Straight up and down from car park. Visited old trig, high point and then cairn. Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 23/09/2019 |
Easy, steady walk on very good path. For anyone thinking of taking a dog up because the path looks easy, the boulder field comprising the flattish 2/3 mile to and from the summit may be very hard work, especially if they have little legs! | harpmonk | 08/09/2019 |
Climbed from the Braes of Foss car park, with Christopher Brisbane. Windy on top with high level cloud, but good views from the summit, 4hrs all in. | chillyman8 | 01/09/2019 |
From Braes of Foss car park | Ajm0310 | 26/08/2019 |
Most wonderful walk with Dad. Clouds and rain on the summit but made it to the top. Final mile was tough especially as I fell over and smashed my knee but couldn't fault the company. With trimarc2. | Fionalevey | 11/08/2019 |
With Fiona. My 2nd visit. Forgotten how rocky ridge is. John Muir Society are doing a good job looking after the paths and surrounds | trimarc2 | 11/08/2019 |
