The starting point is the grounds
of the Benmore Botanic Gardens, situated 7 miles outside
of Dunoon. After walking along the west side of Loch
Eck, take the road on the north side of the burn in
the Bernice Glen for as far as it goes up the glen
and continue by a path through the forest up to the
pass at the foot of the north-east ridge of Beinn
Mhor.
Climb this quite steep ridge with crags on the left
to the flatter summit of the hill. From Clach Bheinn,
the descent to Loch Eck can be made down the south-east
ridge, or in a more circuitous way down the north-east
ridge to visit the Paper Cave where it is said that
the Campbells hid their family deeds and documents
in the 17th Century.
