The old path ahead runs up to left of stream, in places a soggy trench. With the plantation fence (and another ladder stile) ahead, turn off right to cross two stream branches, then join the well-made main path to leave the enclosure at a gate. In another 300 metres, at a tiny rocky outcrop, the path forks. The path ahead here is the stiff climb on good path to Beinn Ghlas. The well-built left path slants gradually up the side of Coire Odhar, to the col at its head.

Through this pass between Meall Corranaich and Beinn Ghlas, the path contours round to the right, gradually climbing around the north flank of Beinn Ghlas. The path here is narrower and rougher. The slope is north facing and rather steep, and it can hold hard old snow. The path enters the north bowl of Beinn Ghlas, drops a little to cross a stream, then slants up to the Lawers/Ghlas col at 1000m.


Arriving at Ben Lawers summit

The well-built path with steps and zigzags leads ahead up the first steep slope to Creag Loisgte. It’s then not quite so steep to Ben Lawers summit with its trig point and non-functioning viewpoint indicator.
