All the Traligill caves are on SSSIs and come under the control of Scottish Natural Heritage. Normally there is no problem with straightforward caving trips except during the deer stalking season. Check with the keeper at Stronchrubie Cottage at NC249192, late summer and autumn. Use the public carpark below the Inchnadamph Hotel on the A837 at NC 251 217. There is no automatic right of vehicle access up the track to Glenbain cottage. Prior permission for that is required from the Estate.
