The southern side of Glen Coe includes some very well-known mountains and can be split into two groups; the ones you can see from the A82 and the ones you can’t. Included in the former group is Buachaille Etive Mor, Buachaille Etive Beag, the Three Sisters and the Ballachulish Horseshoe, and in the latter, three Munros between Glen Creran and Glen Etive (Sgor na h-Ulaidh, Beinn Fhionnlaidh and Beinn Sgulaird). With huge amounts of climbing and walking in summer and winter, this area is also home to a large cairn built for Queen Victoria, or so the story goes. Includes all major peaks above 600m.
Headed up the path into Coire nan Lochain. Ascended Dorsal Arete. Made quick work of this so we headed up onto the summit of Stob Coire Nan Lochan and then headed round to the 1150 Summit of Bidean Nam Bian. We then retraced our steps before descending north across the top of south buttress and pinnacle buttress and heading back down into the coire and follow the path down to the road. yesterdays rain and overnight temperatures made for good conditions underfoot
