I found this walk pretty easy going, I really took my time as I was still a little tender after Beinn Eighe.

The walk up was nice but I was caught short and had to do my first hill poo, I'll save you the details but there is no mess behind a rock :lol:

The way up was ok, I'm glad it had been dry for days because I can imagine the route up being a nightmare when wet. Once up on the ridge it was pretty easy going, the rock hopping got annoying after a while.

Nice views all round!

I didn't follow the added route exactly, I took a cross country detour on my way back to the car to visit the wee caves near by, the underground burn is very impressive.
