Eididh nan Clach Geala sits above the moorlands of Inverlael Forest, an area dominated by mighty Beinn Dearg. It is a predominatly grass-covered hill with rocky terrain higher up and a bouldery summit crest split by a grassy bank.

A stalkers path runs through Gleann na Sguaib and up to Lochan a' Chnapaich, just below Eididh nan Clach Geala from where the Munro can be hiked along with the other peaks in the Beinn Dearg group.

Another stalkers path travels to Coire an Lochain Sgeirich to the north of Eididh nan Clach Geala, which gives the option of a detour to Seana Bhraigh before continuing onwards to Eididh nan Clach Geala and the other Munros in Inverlael Forest.
