A 29km circuit of 6 Munros around Glas Maol. Was too glorious a forecast to not do it. This was probably the most adventurous day of 2024. What an awesome trek.

A slight modification of the WalkHighlands route but well within the map boundaries.

Back at the car a stranger asked where I'd been and I said I'd climbed 6 Munros in the area. In his words, I "got my money's worth"
