Description

Completed the Lochaber Traverse route in 7hrs on a particularly hot summers day this June. The route specifies to touch all the Munro and Munro tops/ subsidiaries to complete a true traverse of the ridge running across the grey corries to Ben Nevis. Only the outlier of Stob ban is left out of the grey corries. Relatively simple nav day, a few paths from knowledge to find and making sure we visited any flowing water was the biggest challenge. Very hot conditions.

Area : Ben Nevis (Fort William To Loch Leven)

This area covers the mountains between Fort William, Loch Leven (to the south) and Loch Treig (to the east). The area includes Ben Nevis and Carn Mor Dearg, The Mamores, The Aonachs and The Grey Corries. An impressive 20 Munros are split equally by Glen Nevis and the waters of Abhainn Rath. Relatively accessible from the A82, these mountains hold some classic walking and climbing routes such as The Ring of Steall in the Mamores and Point Five Gully on Ben Nevis. Includes all major peaks above 600m.
