Loch Ossian, Meall na Lice

[The Rodmiester]

An inside one hour jaunt up a wee Hump (see Hillbaggers website for further info). At 584m high I thought about 45mins up and down. Headed off from campsite adjacent to South track to YH and just opposite YH followed another track South which had almost immediately a path coming in off the East side which took me on the North side of Meall na Lice, looking upwards I saw the position of the crags and worked out a route to the West of same

Path from track heading in the direction of the hill to be climbed

After a not too steep climb up the North West face approaching the summit the gradient lessens and the underfoot conditions get slightly boggy but nothing for concern

View from the summit cairn, as I was approaching another walker was leaving and heading off the East ridge, was that you?

Beinn na Lap which I climbed in the morning

View down the NE shoulder

View down to the wild campsite. This is a fine wee hill if only for the wonderful views from the summit and well worth the little effort in getting to the top. I must check the website to see if there are any other reports on this wee gem. I can highly recommend this walk and also a pint of Corrour Gold Ale at the Corrour Station afterwards, it goes down a treat before retreating to your tent or YH.

Sun setting on what was a wonderful weekends walking the hills, hope there will be many more such as this Easter Break.

Nice one Rod, you certainly don't waste a minute when in the great outdoors - if there is a hill nearby you will be up it

Looks like you had a great few days. You're doomed if you're onto the humps though . Looks like a good one for views of Loch Ossian, mind you

Hi malky, will not be doing many Humps, but this one looked interesting and quite rugged from Beinn na Lap, and I had a spare hour so thought I would go for it, anyway great way to get up a thirst as I did not hang about after a slow walk up BNL earlier in the day. By the time the weekend was finished the Corrour Gold was sold out Nice pint!

I enjoy these wee hills if out and about and looking for a quick walk. You had the added bonus of getting some great views especially looking towards Loch Ossian.

Hi Sarah86, your spoilt for choice at Loch Ossian, but this is a fine wee hill with great views from the top with very little effort required. I was a bit surprised to find another walker at the summit though I wonder how Archie the long haired hound from the Station House Restaurant would get on with your Penny?
