On turning left up Sgiath nam Tarmachan from either route, you soon meet the broad Munro-baggers’ path up from Loch Earn. Follow it up to the white trig point at Ben Vorlich summit.

A delightful 100 metres of ridge lead to the east summit, just 1m lower. Continue down the well-defined southeast ridge, with a small path and old fence posts. At its foot the ridge levels, with a peat hag. Drop left for slightly easier going alongside the stream Allt a’ Bhealaich Gliogarsnaiche, following it down to the ruined Dubh Choirein house. The route omitting Ben Vorlich rejoins here.

Remains of a footbridge start the path down Allt an Dubh Choirein. This path is mostly still there, and follows the left bank of the small river. After 1.2km the river has a small, tree-lined gorge. Just after this the main path heads out left, away from the river, to a bridge over a sidestream Allt na Fearna, then follows it back to the main river. In another 400 metres you pass a footbridge. Around 600 metres after that, the riverside path joins a grassy track, through a gate below a new plantation.
