| Sunny start soggy finish | Capt Malbec | 16/03/2024 |
| Staying at OMC Cottage in Crianlarich, with Richard Moore, Nicky Creadland and Gill Short. Parked at gravel parking opposite Coileitir, followed bogged path alongside the Allt Mheuran to the bleacach. Then on to Dtoc Coir'an Albannaich, down to Meall Tarsuinn and ending on Meall nan Eun. The descend from here into Glen Ceiltein was never ending and boggy, but the new hydro track made the final 2miles manageable, 08:30hrs. Munro No's 194 & 195. | chillyman8 | 20/08/2023 |
| From parking opposite start of Coileitir track, up Glen Ceitlein to Meall nan Eun then west to Meall Tarsuinn and Stob Coir an Alnannaich. Crossed 738m beallach and up to Glas Bheiinn Mhor. Returned to lowest point on ridge then steeply north to cross Allt Mheuran and followed it down, fighting through bracken on the last section before reaching the track along the River Etive. With FY. | TRG318 | 26/07/2023 |
| Coileitir - E bank of Allt Mheuran - col at 738m - Stob Coir' an Albannaich - Meall Tarsuinn - Meall nan Eun - NW 'ridge' - Glen Ceitlein - Coileitir. 12.3 miles, 1320m climb, 7 hours. Made life much harder for myself by following the Walkhighlands recommendation to take the NW ridge of this one pretty much direct - the correct route is a path that descends from the Meall Tarsuinn-Meall nan Eun col. | Mark Jackson | 20/07/2023 |
| Started off at parking area for Ben Starav. Up the track to the bealach between Glas Bheinn Mhor and Stob Coir an Albannaich and then up steep path to the plateau of Albannaich. The cloud cleared and the rest of the day was warm and sunny with great views with all the hills on show. Bit of snow left on north facing cliffs. Steep descent then over Meall Tarsuinn and on to Meall nan Eun. Descent into Glen Ceitlein was pathless and very rough. Time taken 7 hours 5 minutes for 12.36 miles and 4285 feet of ascent. | isabelle | 01/06/2023 |

| Great day with Ron Dorn. Sunny, high cloud and little wind. Usual route from Coileitir but had to drop to 650m on east ridge of Albanaich to get free of snow cornice. 8 1/2 hours. | alexmaclennan | 27/04/2014 |
| Still some snow on the north face descent between the two hills climbed, an ice axe would have been handy! Steady pace for most of the day, first climb of the year! | FCMark | 25/04/2014 |

| Overcast but clear and coldlovely walk in but steep slog to the top of Albannaich. Icy on top and cloud came down - crampon day | Capt Malbec | 07/04/2013 |
| After a tricky descending of Albernnach, Eun was straight forward. The decent I took was go back to the col at approx NN184450 and found a well trodden path down the long Allt Ceitlein. Eun's NE ridge looked do-able but complicated. Very tired! | Jhimmy | 20/07/2012 |
