Decided on a little hill today, not been up many hills this year and definitely not ready to tackle any munros, my hill fitness is not where it used to be!
Attempted to start the walk at the train station but got shood away by one of the residents, she handed me a print out from the forestry commission website saying there was no parking facilities. Moved the car along to the FC entrance a little further down the road towards Arrochar and got started.
Not sure if it's my lack of hill walking but I found this one tough on the lungs, was pleased that I wasn't feeling it in my legs though! We'll see if that changes though.
Followed the path all the way up, be warned it's quite wet underfoot, I did slip a couple of times, left some skid marks but managed to save myself from falling completely!
Well worth the walk for the views, 360° vista of Loch Lomond, Loch Long and all the hills in between!
Definitely one I'll revisit!
