From the roadside, Sgurr nan Clach Geala is for the most part, well hidden from view, only revealing its dramatic character from higher ground. A ruined trig point stands on the mountain's summit close to the rim of a small coire, which in turn stands above Coire Mor where striking cliffs and buttresses fall impressively.

A hike to Sgurr nan Clach Geala will presumably take in other Munro peaks, including its neighbours, Sgurr nan Each and Meall a' Chrasgaidh, with the most likely approach from the path that crosses from Loch a' Bhraoin to Loch Fannich.

Paths in the glens lead to pathless heather and grass clad slopes. Higher up, paths travel on the mountain's crests and stick close to the upper edge of the east facing coire, giving a little easy scrambling and sense of exposure.
