To the east of Kinlochleven and the Mamores range of Munros, Glas Bheinn is the highest point on a long grass and heather covered ridge overlooking Loch Eilde Mor and Blackwater Reservoir.

The most straightforward route to Glas Bheinn begins from Mamore Lodge or Kinlochleven, from where a hike or cycle on a fine estate track heading eastwards gets to within 2km of the hill's summit. This route could be done as a detour from the Mamores.

Glas Bheinn can also be approached from Glen Spean, where tracks head to the southern end of Loch Treig and Glas Bheinn can be combined on a hiking route with a Graham hill or two, Beinn na Cloiche being close by.
