Take the South Loch Tay road east out of Killin and, whilst most cyclists will follow it all the way to Kenmore, walkers turn right up the private road within a mile. Soon joined by the bypass route, walkers follow the road around the edge of Lochan Breaclaich and up to the summit of the Way at 565 m/1850 ft.
Once the track reaches a huge pipeline, leave it to descend across open hillside to the Newton Burn and Brae Farm. This section may require map and compass skills in poor visibility. Descend the farm road to Ardeonaig Hotel. Turn right along the South Loch Tay road for the final 3-mile road-walk into Ardtalnaig.
