Description

Sron na Creise from Blackrock Cottage. Lovely scramble and easy to follow. Not too exposed but probably good to have a rope available if leading others. Continued over Creise and Meall a Bhuiridh & down through ski area. Did it between buses in 3hr 40m but that was rather a hurry.

Area : Glen Etive to Glen Lochy

This is the area south of Buachaille Etive Mor as far as the A85 (Tyndrum to Oban road). It includes the peaks around the Glencoe Ski Centre (Creise and Meall a’Bhuiridh) alongside eleven other Munros and many other peaks above 600m. Highlights such as Ben Cruachan (1126m) and Stob Ghabhar (1090) remind all-comers that this is an area of high mountains and low glens.
