Ben More and Stob Binnein
Posted: Mon Aug 31, 2020 7:51 pm
Almost perfect conditions for bagging my 3rd and 4th Munros (newbie!).
Route description from Walk Highlands followed and was very accurate!
Ben More was my FAVOURITE Munro yet! Really enjoyable climb and spectacular views all the way up. Path disappears for a short while at the start but then really easy to follow up from there. Good terrain!
Chilly up top at 1174m!! Path between the Munros was ideal!
Took just under 2 hours to the summit of Ben More, then 90mins from there to summit of Stob Binnein which was absolutely stunning!
The descent was easily the worst part of this walk - mostly due to the fact it was a solid 60% bog, and my walking boots decided to start letting in water around the top of Ben More - ideal...
All in we took 6hrs 15 up and down with some breaks which I am very happy with!
Only discovered after the fact we had chosen #16 and #18th highest Munros!
Looking forward to tackling Ben Vorlich and Stuc a'Chroin tomorrow!!
