Description

A day hike from Kincochmore to the summit of Sgor Eilde Beag. Weather was overcast but not cold. Light fog on the summit. Navigation was not too difficult due to the distinctive landscape and multiple features. I managed to encounter no people at all on the entire walk and did find a large herd of Red Deer. The terrain was flat, not too boggy but there were a couple of river crossings which were made easier with the help of walking poles.
One downside was the presence of Ticks which I discovered a day after my return home and removed with tweezers.

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.
