Nevis Range is a good, efficient set up for winter skiers, summer mountain bikers and tourists. But no dedicated walkers path goes up from the car park. So ideally pick a day the gondola doesn’t run (link below) and always be ultra cautious not to impede cyclists/skiers! I enjoyed this day out as something different but traditionalists may prefer approaching the Aonachs another way.
Take the gravel trail up from the right hand corner of the car park, then at the old tramway go left across to the gondola line. Next wend you’re way up as best you can roughly following the pylons then the World Cup downhill track. In places are faint side trods, between which you’re warily forced on to the cycle track. Including Finniosgaig serves to get you away from the cyclists soonest and is a busy, popular viewpoint worth visiting.

"With three friends. We left the car beside a gate beyond Creag Aoil. Due to error we walked through a quarry and across rough ground to join the intended track. A track (not on map) took us to sluice gate, hence a short rough path to edge of trees. We followed Allt an t-Sneachda, and then the ridge to W of it Aonach Mor. There is a large cairn. Two of us went on to Aonach Beag (small cairn). Steep descent to col leading to Carn Mor Dearg. Followed Allt Daim and its eastern branch. We had some difficulty getting through wooded area as it was now dark. A few slight snow showers with little snow on Aonach Mor, more on Aonach Beag." — peter43 • Dec 30, 1984
