Description

A fantastic summer walk, which I put on for my Meetup group. Six of us went. We took our boots off to cross the River Lochy, and we had a lot of fun, singing our way through the boggy forested section. We walked up the mainly pathless western face of the hill, and a couple of our group were quite slow, but none of us were in a hurry, so we just took our time. We had lunch on the summit, and did a bit of sunbathing on the summit of Beinn a'Chleibh. We got back down at about 7.30pm - a very leisurely and enjoyable day.

Area : Inveraray to Crianlarich (Ben Lui)

From the Arrochar Alps to Ben Lui, this area is home to nine Munros. Half of the peaks in the area are within the boundaries of the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, while the others lie to the west. The three summits of The Cobbler (884m) contain some of the best climbing in the Southern Highlands while Ben Lui in winter looks positively Alpine. Access is relatively straightforward from the A83, A82 or A85.
