This area includes the eastern edge of the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, and the Glen Artney Hills. Ben Vorlich (985m) and Stuc a’ Chroin (975m) are the only two Munros in the area which covers the land between Loch Earn (to the north) and the town of Callander (to the south). Access is typically from the A84 or A85.
Leading a group of 14 people, along with another ML to the summit of Ben Vorlich, at which point 7 of the group opted to return via the outward route and the remaining 7 continued on to Stuc a Chroin. Fairly straightforward day out, with no problems or dramas, other than having to give a bit of physiotherapy to one of the group part way up the scramble/path on Stuc a Chroin, as they were having problems with their knee - a little bit of stretching helped to ease the problem and they continued to the summit with no further problems.
