Description

Start at the NT for Scotland car park. After leaving the car park climb up through the fenced nature reserve to the gate and then turn right to climb the lower slopes of Beinn Ghlas. After some zig zags you get on the shoulder of Beinn Ghlas and with steepening ground you reach the summit with good views across to Ben Lawers. Drop down to the bealach and then start up the slopes to Ben Lawers (1214m). Retrace steps for the return. The snow was excellent with patches of new snow and some older neve.

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.
