Overview

At 909m Beinn nan Oighreag is one of the highest Corbetts. The approach we will take here is a steady climb from Glen Lochay following an old path to the shielings of the Allt Dhuin Croisg. Expect however some boggy going on the approach, a burn crossing and a pathless grassy/heathery hill.
