Overview

Follow the path up through the Birks to the top and then take the Urlar Road.  Fork left at the farm and follow the moorland track up as far as the pylon track.  Skirt round Meall Mor to join the southern Rob Roy Way past the green hut.  From the farm cross over to the northern Rob Roy Way and follow this past Dunkskiag back to the Birks.  Good tracks throughout with great hill views.
