The track runs gently uphill around the base of Ben Halton. After 2km it passes through another gate, now above Glen Artney and below Dun Dubh. A deer fence is just above. After 400 metres, just before a small quarry on the right, the wall below the track has a break where it becomes a railed fence. This is a convenient place to cross it. If you reach a gate through the high deer fence, you’ve gone too far.

Head south down rough pasture. When you see Dalclathick hut below, head directly towards it. However, the Allt Glas prevents you from reaching it. With a streamside plantation on your right, bear left to fenced sheep handling pens. From their back left corner, a green track runs down to a smooth gravel track at the valley floor.

Follow the track left, down-valley, gradually rising through woods. After 2km, it bends uphill towards Blairmore, but here fork right, slightly downhill, on a green track. After a gate it crosses an open field into a wood. Here it dips to cross a stream, then slants slightly uphill, becoming swampy and invisible under rushes. Recapture it beyond the swamp, where it emerges from the wood at a gate.
