Melting in the Mamores
Route: Binnein Mòr and Na Gruagaichean, Mamores
Munros: Binnein Mòr, Na Gruagaichean
Date walked: 12/07/2025
Time taken: 7.25 hours
Distance: 16.25km
Ascent: 1327m
30 degrees forecasted, to hike or not to hike?
With an alarm set for 345am, to allow me to drive to Kinlochleven and break most of the ascent before the heat really ramped up.
Followed WH route, taking in Sgòr Eilde Beag & Binnein Mor South Top also
Cracking views, no breeze on top so roasty toasty. Spent half an hour sitting on top of each Munro summit before I could drag myself along. The views in all directions today were phenomenal
