Beinn Resipol from the north
Ascent : 920m, distance : 13km
From Strontian, drive up the road past Ariundle towards Polloch. The road reaches nearly 350m, then becomes narrow and twisty as it descends to Loch Doilet. Just before the bridge over the River Polloch, a track with a Right-of-Way sign to Strontian heads south into the forest. In the forest this track is quite mucky and several trees have fallen and occasionally block progress. On the track, continue to the edge of forest, then get to the cairn on the track's highest point. Continue to Beinn Resipol's summit as described in the main route. I short-cutted this route - after 1km on the track, I came off and aimed south-west uphill - this is not to be recommended as the terrain is incredibly difficult with thick grass hiding lumpy wet ground created for planting the forest.
Return by the same route.
