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.
I began the walk from Crianlarich and made my way South through woodlands to the River Falloch, which I crossed and then headed up through a grassy fellside to the summit of Sron Gharbh. From here I continued South over Twisting Hill and on via a well defined path to An Caisteal, which has an interesting knobbly summit. There were no views to be had so I continued down a tricky path, quite steep and rocky in places, to a col and up onto Beinn a' Chroin. From here I descended North, past a small tarn along a grassy ridge to a patch of ground marked An Teanga on the map. Then I picked up a path over boggy ground to follow the River Falloch to the woodlands then North again to Crianlarich.
