The ascent of Ben Vorlich is really challenging but definitely worth it. The path is rather steep but not dangerous. The shoulder as well as the submit give spectacular views of the murnos around.

I would maybe advise to cycle from Inveruglas to the starting point as there is 45min-1h walk on the tarmac at the beginning. Also there is an amazing spot for camping between Ben Vane and Ben Vorlich so ideal if you want to pitch your tent and climb the mountain on the following day.
