This was my first Munro in quite sometime and was really worth while, completed this one while on the NC500 route with my better half.

Started at the Car park and just followed the simple route up. left Her at the van to sun bath and drink Prosecco while i had a wee jaunt. 1 1/2 hrs to reach the summit, fine plod up, few folk had the same idea.

Weather was incredible, views were incredible, really nice to shadow the water fall on the way up. few pools to stop and have a dip should you wish.

View from the top was mind blowing, well worth the trip. i'm hoping to get back and do Ben Kilbreck next week and and will up date in due course.

Have fun folks, and stay safe.

GET OUT THERE!!
