As an outlier in the Fannichs mountain range, Beinn Liath Mhor Fannaich is connected to the other peaks via a ridge travelling to Sgurr Mor.

I'd guess if Beinn Liath Mhor Fannaich was to be bagged on its own, most people would probably opt to approach from the dam at the western end of Loch Droma as this is the nearest roadside point and also has a hydro road travelling in towards the foot of the hill. However, this leads to Beinn Liath Mhor Fannaich's northern shoulder, the slog up which being so tedious coping with hidden divets and stones with boulderfield higher up, really can't be recommended.

As Beinn Liath Mhor Fannaich is most likely to be hiked with Sgurr Mor and other nearby Munro peaks there are far better approaches, with the hill's western and eastern arms being much more agreeable to walk or run along.
