Very few people on Walk Highlands have walked up this hill. If you are in the area it is one not to be missed

Parking was easy - big layby at the end of Loch Seil

Navigation was easy - just follow the grassy road and keep left after Loch Dubh.

There was a road/grassy path all the way. On the OS Map it only showed part of the way.

Gradual climb up the hill to the Trig Point. The views were great and would be stunning on a clear day.

Not a totally clear day for us but we were looking over to Mull (to another Ben More), Luing, Scarba and Kerrera and lots of other smaller islands.

There was a bit of life out on the water with the Calmac Ferry, a Gravel Boat and Canoes all out and about
