Access: From Spean Bridge, drive to Cour Bridge, then take road south passed
Coire Choille Farm for about 1 mile to where there is parking.
There are two parking areas: the first at the end of the forest track NN25297937
and the second at the end of the tramway NN25567886.
Route:
This is a great walk with spectacular views and easy terrain over most of its length.
It includes all the related Munro tops, but omits the two western-most
tops of Sgurr Choinnich Mor and Sgurr Choinnich Beag which can be tackled from Glen Nevis
as here.
