As straightforward a day as the Way offers: a good path through a widening glen below the steep sides of Beinn Odhar, with Beinn Dorain in view all the way to Bridge of Orchy. There the Way joins the old military road and climbs to a viewpoint over Loch Tulla and the Black Mount before dropping to Inveroran, with Rannoch Moor beyond.
