The King of all Munros. I have climbed the mountain on fine summer day in 2013. The walk was very steep and I remember I was really exhausted when I got back to the Ben Nevis campsite. I took the shorter route to the mountain track from the camp instead of the one from the visitor centre. Great views, worth the challenge.

Here are some pictures from the walk.
