Ben Venue from Achray car park
Posted: Thu Jan 27, 2011 7:33 pmThe route is still exactly as described on the WH page.
As stated good view of the hill and Ben An as well at the start.
It is quite a long walk through trees with only one vantage point looking back to the loch on the climb up, where trees hae been felled.
The two peaks are worth the effort otherwise don't get good view all round from just one.
Going back down, once you reach the trees again, you come back down the path to car park very quickly as it is well made.
