Description

7.1km, 770m. Glen Lyon, Southern Highlands.
Bridge over River Lyon GR512421 (12.00 ish), track to dam, west banks of Allt Loaghain until I fancied the interest of a more direct assault up between the crags above, eventually got to Meall Ghaordaidh (14.50) where I briefly met another solo walker in shorts (brrr) before heading down the eastern slopes before dropping north into the corrie and back to the van (16.10).
The second walk of the day!

Area : Glen Lyon to Glen Dochart & Loch Tay (Ben Lawers)

This area covers the peaks to the north and east of Crianlarich. Glen Lyon forms the northern boundary while the road from Crianlarich to Aberfeldy is the southern boundary. The Ben Lawers group in the east of this area includes seven separate peaks, all Munros, which are part of an impressive 12km ridge line. The western side of this area is generally lower and not as steep but does still home some a number of Munros. All major peaks above 600m are included in the mountains list. The area to the north is Loch Rannoch to Glen Lyon.
