Munro Bagged

Date walked: 14/10/2018

Time taken: 5 hours

Distance: 11.9km

Ascent: 974m

This was my first EVER munro! and I think the start of a new hobby! My brother Neill climbed this with me and we both loved it! it was pretty gruelling and was steep from the start. Instead of coming down the way we came up a friend told me if you go down the other side of the summit theres a path down that completes the loop. So glad we found this path after "dreeping" down some rocky outcrops as this path offered some of the best views of Loch Lomond.

At the very start of the walk there is a lovely kept public shelter with clean toilets and a well stocked tourist leaflet shelf. Car parking on the shore of Loch Lomond for £3 for the full day is fantastic.

Bumped in to lots of friendly people along the way including a lovely little dog at the summit!
