I was on my way to climb a couple of Grahams from Hells Glen when just after Arrochar i realised i'd left two very important bits of equipment back at the house, those being my camera and my compass. Not being happy yo continue to do the Grahams i about turned and rather than return home i decided to go up this little beauty. The walk may be short but it's quite steep in places. I parked at the station and walked under the railway and took the loop path. When i got to the top of the loop just after crossing a wee stream and at one of the marker posts i made my way up through the forest. I continued to the top of the forest then made my way over towards the summit where i soon picked up a path which led all the way to the summit. Once there the views were stunning with great views to The Cobbler, all the Munros in the area as well as Loch Lomond. You'll have to take my word for that as i had no camera. I returned via the path that led into the forest and back down to the loop. Once at the loop i turned left to continue the walk back to the start.
