From West end of Loch Glascarnoch, Creag Dhubh Fannaich, Beinn Liath Mhor Fannaich, Sgurr Mor, Meall Gorm, Meall Gorm SE Top and An Coileachan. Clear sunny day with excellent visibility.Lazylizzie03/06/2022
I parked at a layby on the A832 just east of the Grudie hydro power plant, from where I cycled up to Fannich Lodge, roughly 7.5 mile cycle there and the same back, though most of the way back was downhill and the track was almost entirely surfaced. Locking up the bike at the gates to the lodge, I hiked up the stalkers path to Meall Gorm (949m) a Munro, followed by its’ South East Munro Top (922m), then a mild dip and re-climb to the Munro of An Coileachan (924m). The descent SW from An Coileachan via a slightly steep pathless hillside, was more tiring than the ascent. It serves me right for sleeping in the day before, but the weather wasn’t great, once above 800m there was the odd break, but the mist limited visibility to approx. 30m. I had intended on doing these hills as part of the Sgurr Mor 4 in August 2020, but I had to pale due to a lack of water and I’ve planned to bag these two several times from south, but always found an excuse not too.chillyman817/10/2021
Fannichs 9, hike 'n bikeHuwel22/05/2021
A long day back up in the NW highlands with John and wee Islay hitting up the Eastern Fannichs - four munros (and 2 tops) over 16.5miles, and 1450m / 4750ft of ascent in just a smidge under 8 hours, followed by a 4.5hr drive home (with John handling the driving this time). The forecast was for clear visibility, but we ended up in the clouds for most of it, with strong winds resulting in -3C wind chill.. Winter is coming!mproudfoot29/08/2020

With JW. From West end of Loch Glascarnoch, up Abhainn an Torrain Duibh to Creag Dhubh Fannaich, Beinn Liath Mhor Fannaich, Sgurr Mor, Meall Gorm, An Coileachan. Long descent with painful knee but good views!robertgn08/01/2019
Climbed solo from A835 west of Loch Glascarnoch. Followed path on the West Bank of the Abhainn an Torrain Duibh (not marked on map). Ignore the track through the forest. Continue alongside Abhainn a Ghiuthais Li as far as the footbridge (also unmarked) at 252712. Ascended Meallan Buidhe (skirted summit), An Coileachan, Meall Gorm SE top and main top, Meall nam Peithirean, Sgurr Mor, Beinn Liath Mhor Fannaich. Return via Craig Dhubh Fannaich (summit skirted) and back alongside outward route. Excellent conditions. Fine walk but long and rough walk in/out. Luckily very dry conditions - bogs would hinder progress.jamessteel10024/07/2018
