09.00 - 12.30, 15km bike + 6km, 1150m.
Cloud above 450m, steady rain on the way down. Alan and myself. Layby head of Loch Fyne, Geln Fyne to Inverchorachan (on bikes), path to north east bealach, Beinn Buidhe, and back. Making the most of a drab day on the way home after four days climbing with Tim and Alan. Achilles played up after the biking but some Emulgel did the trick. Tim stayed with the camper van and had meat for breakfast!
Area :
Loch Fyne to Loch Long (Beinn an Lochain)
South of the A83 as far as Dunoon and sandwiched in between Loch Fyne and Loch Long are a number of peaks, none of which qualify for Munro status. The southern half of the Arrochar Alps includes Beinn an Lochain, which at 901m was wrongly included in Sir Hugh Munro’s original list of 3000ft peaks in Scotland. The mountains list contains all peaks above 600m.
