Pleasant walk. There is nothing to distinguish the first summit except that the path starts to descend slightly. For a better view of the Bernia continue for a further 300m to an opening at a house. Be careful to spot the y junction for the return. I don’t think I spotted it and took the first fairly minor path branching off right which petered out and led to a further 600m of awful bushwhacking to regain the path. I presume the proper path turn off is a bit further along.
