Thanks very much for your replies. They have a lot of useful information. I intend to run this route, so sticking to good roads/paths is beneficial rather than traversing the open hillside*. There are two (selfish) reasons for going clockwise - one is that it will be all downhill back to the car par...

I'm planning a route which ideally would involve passing along the northern side of Loch Tulla, traveling from Victoria Bridge to the A82 near Achallader. Does anyone on the forum know what the access is like here? Can I run along what looks like a through road? The reason I would prefer this part o...

Nice report! I was on Beinn Mhanach on the same morning (and just posted a report : https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=100868 ) I was on the clock that day, but still I was very much tempted to go across and join your ridge to the SW of Meall Buidhe before going over Beinn...

$matches[2] I've been looking at this one for years now, but always found a better alternative mountain - usually one I'd done before. This hill has a reputation as a grassy lump, with a long walk and river crossings on the usual route from Auch, never mind the awkward A82-side parking there. So, w...

$matches[2] Having done both Buachaille Etive Mor and Buachaille Etive Beag separately in the past, I thought I would try a route to combine them. My plan was to park at the usual car park for Buachaille Etive Beag, walk to Altnafeadh along the A82 and take the walkhighlands route for Buachaille Et...

aonachs.gpx Here's just a quick write-up of a fairly grey day in Glen Nevis. The route I posted is the actual gpx file from my watch, including the 'extras'. I like to start my climbs early. I can avoid traffic on the drive in to the climb and can get a parking space. I know the mountains have been...

With a very promising forecast for clear skies, we set off up the A82, passing a clear Ben Lomond backed by the stars in the 5.30am sky. Now in daylight, we were swamped in fog as we passed Bridge of Orchy and Loch Tulla - this will burn off - the forecast said it would. Up on Rannoch Moor it was cl...

As this is a rather uninspiring review on a hill I know quite well, here are a couple of photos (from the summit cairn) to redress the balance and perhaps inspire a return visit :

Ben Lomond to the north....

....and the Firth of Clyde and Arran to the south west

I do however concede that the views are not always this good...

Cracking wee hill Ben Bowie, and as my local hill I've been up it many times. The views across to the Luss hills and Loch Lomond / Ben Lomond are superb for such little effort, as are the views to as far as Goat Fell on Arran in the other direction. It's now the target of my first attempts at hill r...

This is almost a review of my year in Munros - over 50 done this year, mostly new ones but some for the second and even third time. The photos have all been through photoshop in an attempt to be 'arty'. Whether it works or not is up to you. Hope you enjoy them :D ac1.jpg ac2.jpg ac3.jpg ac5.jpg ac7....

Nice report Pete. I did exactly the same route on exactly the same day and have almost exactly the same photos! Judging by the shadows you left a little later than me. I wasn't going to go down the scree, but a guy I met at the summit of Sgorr Dhonuill had just come up it and suggested it was nae pr...

With both of us having three full days off from Saturday to Monday of this weekend, we'd planned a bit of a round Scotland trip, taking in interesting hills in various parts of the country. our_route.gpx First off, a three and a bit hour drive up to Kintail to climb Beinn Fhada and A'Ghlas Beinn. We...

My first report on here, so I hope I've done everything right with photos and gpx files! our_route.gpx There is a back story to this selection of route : With my usual climbing partner, Mrs M, at work for the weekend, I was talked into going 'for a long one' by Mr M Snr. With most of his munro map t...

Nice photos It was probably at least some of my tracks you followed (back, for me) up to Dubhchraig. I bagged Dubhchraig and Oss today from Dalrigh (having done the other two many years ago) and met two guys going for the whole set of four - one of whom is probably who indulged you with a summit pho...

Hello Walkhighlanders! (I hope that is the correct term to use) Terrific website! I joined a few months ago but wanted to find some specific photos before posting an introduction. Now I've found them, here goes. I climbed my first Munro a week before my 7th birthday. It was Beinn Narnain, and I reme...
