Description

Dot and I ascended Ben Vane from Inveruglas and then carried on towards Beinn Dubh but before we got there we headed East, dropping down to the Loch Sloy Dam. This side of the hill is fascinating - very broken by ice and several clefts and caves. Returned to our camper van at Inveruglas and drove to Arrochar.

Area : Inveraray to Crianlarich (Ben Lui)

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.
